Hi This has happened again today. I'm considering upgrading this to serious, a 2+ hour stall in the middle of a simple update is not acceptable imo. I'm also getting the GPL Ghostscript 8.62: Unrecoverable error, from /etc/cron.weekly/dhelp, although there has been one doc-base trigger processed without problems between the latest /etc/cron.weekly/dhelp error and today's run. Thanks for your work in Debian Andrew V. ----- Parsing Found/Fixed information... Done Reading changelogs... Done (Reading database ... 475405 files and directories currently installed.)
