Package: aptitude
Version: 0.4.5.4-1
Severity: normal
Aptitude segfaults reproducibly when a second instance is waiting for
'Press return to continue.' after an install action.
Steps to reproduce:
* do some install/upgrade in the aptitude gui mode, and let it waiting
return.
* do another install/upgrade with the command line interface while the
first is still waiting
Below is a back trace from gdb, which is not pretty useful (no debug
symbols):
