OT: Apt-get Problem

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello folks.

apt-v reports: 0.5.4.

I have some unknown problems with this system, that require me to run
apt-get (and ls, and maybe some other things) under strace (strace -o
/dev/null), to avoid shell hangs, with no program activity.

apt-get is thus aliased to this:

strace -o /dev/null -- apt-get -q

When running:

apt-get install pine

after an update (going from 4.55 to 4.56), I got this bit of oddness.
Anyone have thoughts?  Running as full root...
