In that case, you are going to need to help diagnose the problem, because it was not as I thought. Look at the YnPrompt() function in apt-get.cc. What it does is to read one character from stdin, pass it through toupper() and compare it to the translation of "Y" (which is now "Ä"). Does toupper() work as expected on your locale? Are your characters multibyte? I think this code should probably be changed to use nl_langinfo(YESEXPR) instead of this translation hack. Can you tell me whether that method works correctly with your locale? -- - mdz
