It looks like the problem was this patch: changeset: 1572:139d85fc2491 parent: 1570:ce31088c455a user: Daniel Burrows <[email protected]> date: Wed Jul 02 18:31:11 2008 -0700 summary: Don't delete old lists just because one download failed. (Closes: #201842, #479620) I initialized the test to see whether the download failed to "true" instead of "false", so aptitude was never deleting lists. I'll fix this problem along with #448958 (not honoring the apt-get/apt options to suppress cleanup). Daniel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
