Title: SEGV in rare cases as a regression from the #1479207 fix Status in apt package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in apt source package in Trusty: Fix Released Bug description: [ SRU Justification ] This is a regression caused by the previous SRU where, under some corner cases, apt will segfault. See test case. https://errors.ubuntu.com/problem/bb16d60f92f153eff1dcb768223d7969783ab053 [ (Convoluted) Test Case ] In a clean trusty chroot: # apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade # apt-get install xserver-xorg-lts-utopic libegl1-mesa-drivers-lts-utopic xserver-xorg-video-all-lts-utopic xserver-xorg-input-all-lts-utopic software-properties-common # apt-add-repository ppa:gregory-hainaut/pcsx2.official.ppa # dpkg --add-architecture i386 # apt-get update # apt-get install pcsx2 (segfault) # for i in apt apt-utils libapt-pkg4.12 libapt-inst1.5; do echo "$i"_1.0.1ubuntu2.10_amd64.deb | xargs dpkg -i; done # apt-get install pcsx2 0 upgraded, 170 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded. [ Additional Test Case ] In addition to verifying the segfault has been fixed, the regression tests for bug #1479207 and bug #1429041 should be run again to make sure we've made forward progress. [ Regression Potential ] Fairly low but, hey, that's what we say every time we touch this line of code, and we've done it 4 times now.
