Jean-Baptiste Lallement (jibel) wrote : infinite loop if deborphan returns already removed packages

On my system, for some reason which looks like a bug in deborphan, deborphan returns packages that are not installed on the system - dpkg status is 'un' .

In this situation upgrade-system enters in an infinite loop when it purges orphan packages.
