Package: aptitude Version: 0.4.10-1+b2 Severity: normal
The description of -q flag in the aptitude man page refers to apt.conf which in turn refers to sample apt.conf where the flag is not described. It is only said that you can specify it but not what different levels are supposed to do. When specifying a high -q level such as aptitude -q=15 update it still says "Reading package lists ..." but no longer says "Done.". Both inability to turn off the first part of the message and the fact that different parts of the same message are turned off at different -q levels looks wrong to me. -- Package-specific info: Terminal: screen $DISPLAY is set. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.23.3-src (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages aptitude depends on: ii apt [libapt-pkg-libc6.7 0.7.10 Advanced front-end for dpkg ii libc6 2.7-6 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcwidget1 0.5.6.1-3 high-level terminal interface libr ii libgcc1 1:4.3-20080202-1 GCC support library ii libncursesw5 5.6+20080119-1 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii libsigc++-2.0-0c2a 2.0.17-2 type-safe Signal Framework for C++ ii libstdc++6 4.3-20080202-1 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 Versions of packages aptitude recommends: pn aptitude-doc-en | aptitude-do <none> (no description available) pn libparse-debianchangelog-perl <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
