Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: apt
I have /var/log in tmpfs. Then the directory /var/log/apt does not exist
by default.
Then, when running apt-get {install/purge} there is the following
segmentation fault on accessing /var/log/apt/history.log
Example:
apt-get purge chromium (last part of strace -e trace=open below)
Removing chromium ...
--- SIGCHLD (Child exited) @ 0 (0) ---
open("/etc/localtime", O_RDONLY) =
4
open("/var/log/apt/history.log", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_APPEND, 0666) = -1 ENOENT
(No such file or directory)
--- SIGSEGV (Segmentation fault) @ 0 (0) ---
+++ killed by SIGSEGV +++
