[Bug 848907] Re: apt crashes on initial installation of oneiric

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package eglibc - 2.13-20ubuntu2

---------------
eglibc (2.13-20ubuntu2) oneiric; urgency=low

  * Back out Debian r4943 ("Don't include ISO14651 collation rules in
    C.UTF-8 locale") for now; this breaks regcomp on character ranges, which
    exposed a bug in apt, and seems likely to cause other problems, so is
    too risky a change for this point in our release cycle (LP: #848907).

Title:
  apt crashes on initial installation of oneiric

Status in “apt” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “eglibc” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  I attempted to install today's Kubuntu oneiric-alternate-i386.iso
  build, and got the attached apt crash.  Unfortunately, and I'm sorry
  about this, I can't seem to reproduce it when I run the failing
  commands (basically 'apt-cdrom add' and 'apt-get update') by hand, and
  all I have to work with is a screenshot!

  I'll see if I can drill down further.  I don't think this is an
  isolated occurrence; the tester towards the end of bug 420080 seems to
  be experiencing the same symptoms.
