Bug Description

Kubuntu 7.10; KDE 3;
aptitude 0.4.6.1 compiled at Sep 15 2007 09:17:56
Compiler: g++ 4.1.3 20070831 (prerelease) (Ubuntu 4.1.2-16ubuntu1)

NCurses version: 5.6
libsigc++ version: 2.0.17

aptitude crashes when attempting to update repository package lists.

EDIT: Very random. Reboot sometime helps, but doesn't help in other instances. Also, this only happens to aptitude when used in Kuake terminal. aptitude functions normally when executed in Konsole.

Apt-get does not seem to be effected, just aptitude.

It would seem part of my problem is that my terminal has too many columns... A few months back I got a 30" monitor, when one maximizes the terminal and does "echo ${COLUMNS}" the result is "423" ... rows are around 113 or 114

At this width, when I do "aptitude install" with some large package, aptitude freezes as soon as the "[speed/sec]" is shown on the right side of the terminal.

When I reduce the size of the terminal down to a smaller width/height, I do not experience the same freeze ups... I suspect the freeze ups eventually crash out...

I had the same problem with aptitude:

And it was because of I had two monitors at the same time, and the terminal was as wide as both of them, afer I resized the terminal to normal (only in one monitor) I was able to finish the update successfully.

This bug is related to bug #515525, since the same workaround works there. Another workaround (from that issue) is to run aptitude with -q.

To anyone affected by this issue,

We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to review all reported bugs in a timely manner. You reported this bug some time ago and there have been many changes in Ubuntu since that time.

Ubuntu 7.10 (gutsy) reached end-of-life on April 18th, 2009.

Do you still see a problem related to the one that you reported in a currently supported version of Ubuntu?

See this document for currently supported Ubuntu releases:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases

Please let us know if you do otherwise this bug report can be left to expire in approximately 60 days time.

Thank you for helping make Ubuntu better.
