i can't reproduce the error because i have now a successfully installed version of feisty.
the problem appeared after changing the sources.list and fetching the files with aptitude (i don't remember whether directly after "u" or after "g"). having crashed aptitude i could reproduce the error as many times as i wanted to. same with synaptic. my workaround was to use apt-get instead of aptitude. -- synaptics crashes many times trying to dist-upgrade https://launchpad.net/bugs/95730 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
