Public bug reported:
Fails on all sorts of Xenial package installs.
Please update this ticket with manual fix for this, to facilitate Xenial
testing.
Thanks.
__________
Two simple examples...
1) aptitude changelog apt > /dev/null
2) echo 'ttf-mscorefonts-installer msttcorefonts/accepted-mscorefonts-eula
select true' | debconf-set-selections
apt-get -yqq install ttf-mscorefonts-installer
___________
There are several bugs related to this problem. None have a fix
specified + all are opened against random packages, rather than
aptitude.
Several of these bugs have been closed saying problem is fixed in apt-1.1.2 +
above which is incorrect.
