Package: apt Version: 2.1.18 Severity: wishlist Hi,
recent apt versions write /var/log/apt/eipp.log.xz. This is not documented anywhere, codesearch just finds a handful of appearances, none of which gives any advice. Please document what the file is, what is written to it, why there is no log rotation, and how to turn it off ;-) Greetings Marc -- System Information: Debian Release: bullseye/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 5.10.11-zgws1 (SMP w/4 CPU threads) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_WARN, TAINT_OOT_MODULE Locale: LANG=de_DE.utf8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages apt depends on: ii adduser 3.118 ii debian-archive-keyring 2019.1 ii gpgv 2.2.20-1 ii libapt-pkg6.0 2.1.18 ii libc6 2.31-9 ii libgcc-s1 10.2.1-6 ii libgnutls30 3.7.0-5 ii libseccomp2 2.5.1-1 ii libstdc++6 10.2.1-6 ii libsystemd0 247.2-5 Versions of packages apt recommends: ii ca-certificates 20210119 Versions of packages apt suggests: pn apt-doc <none> ii aptitude 0.8.13-2+b1 ii dpkg-dev 1.20.7.1 ii gnupg 2.2.20-1 ii gnupg2 2.2.20-1 ii powermgmt-base 1.36 -- no debconf information
