2015-10-26 19:51:18 Richard Hansen description Hi. I just installed a new Ubuntu MATE 15.10 for my mom and I was selecting packages when aptitude simply crashed. I am using (for reasons beyond my control right now) the 32 bit version if that matters. I don't know if I can reproduce the problem or not, but I may try (despite the fact I do not have frequent access to this computer). If any further information is needed, please let me know.

[Test Case] 1. start up aptitude: sudo aptitude 2. open up a flat package view: Ctrl-T -> Views -> New Flat Package List 3. type 'l' to limit the displayed packages 4. enter "~i!~M" (without the quotes) to only show manually installed packages 5. select each package one at a time and mark it for purge by pressing '_' (underscore) If the bug is not fixed, aptitude will eventually crash (run the 'reset' command to fix your terminal's state once that happens). [Regression Potential] The patch alters the logic used to automatically mark packages for deletion. Any regressions should appear there. The patch is cherry-picked from the upstream Git repository, so upstream recognizes the bug and approves of this fix. However, upstream might have committed additional related changes (e.g., to fix a hypothetical flaw in this patch) without us realizing it. [Original Description] Hi.

[Test Case] On a fresh English install of Ubuntu 15.10 desktop: 1. Start up aptitude: sudo aptitude 2. Mark the following packages as automatically installed (select them and press Shift-M): * language-pack-en * language-pack-en-base * language-pack-gnome-en * language-pack-gnome-en-base Aptitude should now show all four packages as marked for deletion. 3.
