This bug was fixed in the package apt - 0.8.16~exp5ubuntu1

---------------
apt (0.8.16~exp5ubuntu1) oneiric; urgency=low

  * merged new version from debian/experimental, this includes
    a ABI break and two new library packages

apt (0.8.16~exp5) UNRELEASED; urgency=low

  * apt-pkg/makefile:
    - install sha256.h compat header
  * apt-pkg/pkgcachegen.{cc,h}:
    - use ref-to-ptr semantic in NewDepends() to ensure that the
      libapt does not segfault if the cache is remapped in between
      (LP: #812862)

apt (0.8.16~exp4) experimental; urgency=low

  [ Julian Andres Klode ]
  * apt-pkg/pkgcache.h:
    - [ABI break] Add pkgCache::Header::CacheFileSize, storing the cache size
  * apt-pkg/pkgcachegen.cc:
    - Write the file size to the cache
  * apt-pkg/pkgcache.cc:
    - Check that cache is at least CacheFileSize bytes large (LP: #16467)

  [ Michael Vogt ]
  * merged latest fixes from debian-sid
  * apt-pkg/cdrom.{cc,h}:
    - cleanup old ABI break avoidance hacks
  * [ABI break] apt-pkg/acquire-item.{cc,h}:
    - cleanup around OptionalIndexTarget and SubIndexTarget
  * [ABI break] merged patch from Jonathan Thomas to have a new
    RecordField() function in the pkgRecorder parser. Many thanks
    Thomas
  * [ABI break] merge patch from Jonathan Thomas to speed up the
    depcache by caching the install-recommends and install-suggests
    values
  * apt-pkg/contrib/fileutl.{cc,h}:
    - add GetModificationTime() helper
  * apt-pkg/pkgcachegen.cc:
    - regenerate the cache if the sources.list changes to ensure
      that changes in the ordering there will be honored by apt
  * apt-pkg/sourcelist.{cc,h}:
    - add pkgSourceList::GetLastModifiedTime() helper

apt (0.8.16~exp3) experimental; urgency=low

  [ David Kalnischkies ]
  * apt-pkg/pkgcache.h:
    - readd All{Foreign,Allowed} as suggested by Julian to
      remain strictly API compatible
  * apt-pkg/acquire*.{cc,h}:
    - try even harder to support really big files in the fetcher by
      converting (hopefully) everything to 'long long' (Closes: #632271)
  * ftparchive/writer.cc:
    - generate all checksums in one run over the file for Release
  * cmdline/apt-get.cc:
    - add an --assume-no option for testing to say 'no' to everything
  * apt-pkg/deb/debmetaindex.cc:
    - add trusted=yes option to mark unsigned (local) repository as trusted
      based on a patch from Ansgar Burchardt, thanks a lot! (Closes: #596498)

  [ Michael Vogt ]
  * merge fixes from the debian/unstable upload
  * merge lp:~mvo/apt/sha512-template to get fixes for the
    sha1/md5 verifiation (closes: #632520)

apt (0.8.16~exp2) experimental; urgency=low

  [ David Kalnischkies ]
  * [ABI-Break] Implement EDSP in libapt-pkg so that all front-ends which
    use the internal resolver can now be used also with external
    ones as the usage is hidden in between the old API
  * provide two edsp solvers in apt-utils:
    - 'dump' to quickly output a complete scenario and
    - 'apt' to use the internal as an external resolver
  * apt-pkg/pkgcache.h:
    - clean up mess with the "all" handling in MultiArch to
      fix LP: #733741 cleanly for everyone now
  * apt-pkg/depcache.cc:
    - use a boolean instead of an int for Add/Remove in AddStates
      similar to how it works with AddSizes
    - let the Mark methods return if their marking was successful
    - if a Breaks can't be upgraded, remove it. If it or a Conflict
      can't be removed the installation of the breaker fails.
  * cmdline/apt-get.cc:
    - do not discard the error messages from the resolver and instead
      only show the general 'Broken packages' message if nothing else

  [ Stefano Zacchiroli ]
  * doc/external-dependency-solver-protocol.txt:
    - describe EDSP and the configuration interface around it

  [ Michael Vogt ]
  * [ABI-Break] merge lp:~mvo/apt/sha512-template to add support for sha512
  * [ABI-Break] merge lp:~mvo/apt/dpointer to support easier extending
    without breaking the ABI
  * increase ABI version and update package names

apt (0.8.16~exp1) experimental; urgency=low

  * merged with the debian/unstable upload
