[Bug 1007410] Re: install crashed: segfault in libapt-pkg.so.4.12.0

[Simon Déziel]

I'm also seeing this on 2 of my VMs:

Jul 24 06:25:02 vpn kernel: [1199318.293321] apt-get[10694]: segfault at
7fe373096a24 ip 00007fe371338ba3 sp 00007fffb1990950 error 4 in libapt-
pkg.so.4.12.0[7fe3712e4000+120000]

Jul 27 06:25:01 squid kernel: [247200.123752] apt-get[2632]: segfault at
7fce06b1fa24 ip 00007fce054adba3 sp 00007fff969cad90 error 4 in libapt-
pkg.so.4.12.0[7fce05459000+120000]

Both VMs are Precise amd64 fully up to date.
