FWIW, pointing apport-bug at the crash file makes it create a proper bug report with backtraces and stuff.

[netmonk (netmonk)]

Well, beside telling me it uploaded something i dont see how i can link apport-bug to this ticket.

[Julian Andres Klode (juliank)]

So

> the "oops id" can be found in /var/crash/$mycrash.uploaded

so I guess paste that and we can then lookup the crash on the error tracker

[Julian Andres Klode (juliank)]

I believe that https://salsa.debian.org/apt-team/apt/-/merge_requests/120 fixes this.

[Julian Andres Klode (juliank)]

(I also believe this is the same issue as https://errors.ubuntu.com/bucket/?id=/usr/bin/apt%3A11%3Aoperator%3ApkgCache%3A%3ADescFileIterator%3A%3AFile%3ApkgRecords%3A%3ALookup%3AFullTextSearch%3ADoSearch)

[Julian Andres Klode (juliank)]

Fixed in 2.1.3, will look into adding a test case and backporting this to 2.0 shortly.

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

This bug was fixed in the package apt - 2.1.6

  * Consider protected packages for removal if they are marked as such
  * Consider if a fix is successful before claiming it is
  * Allow 20 instead of 10 loops for pkgProblemResolver
