Severity: normal
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/debian/public>apt-ftparchive packages . 2>|/dev/null |grep
E:
NOTE: This command has nothing to do with USENET news. It's more like an
E: Archive is too short
Note the second line of output. That is going to stdout and not stderr,
which results in a corrupted Packages file.
There is a message output to stderr too -- it is:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/debian/public>apt-ftparchive packages . >|/dev/null
E: Errors apply to file './debconf_0.9.81_all.deb'
The file in question is probably truncated or corrupt of course. The
result is crazy stuff like this:
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
Merging Available information
Replacing available packages info, using /var/cache/apt/available.
dpkg: parse error, in file `/var/cache/apt/available' near line 341:
`Arc' is not allowed for yes/no in `essential' field
No, I din't know why dpkg thinks E: is Essential:. Bad case of
xchat-itus there.

Change verbose logging output of apt-ftparchive to go to stderr, instead of
