Package: apt-listchanges
Version: 2.82
Severity: important
I usually run apt-get or synaptic (obviously) from a GUI session (KDE). The
listed changes appear as a popup window (even if there are none and the
window simply flashes and dissappears). No real problem.
If I run from a console or from putty remotely, then the popup obviously
cannot be instantiated. The program crashes at this point with an assert and
segfault. It really should present a text message of any changes or at least
fail
gracefully
Here is the traceback, if relevant
