[Bug 1507211] Re: aptitude segfaults during dependency resolution

[Rogério Theodoro de Brito]

I think that I found a way to (at least partially) reproduce the
problem: if I press _ (underscore) after I have selected packages to be
(automatically) uninstalled (so that they are purged instead of just
uninstalled), then I get the segfault that described before.

Again, if any further information is needed, please let me know.

Rogério.

Title:
  aptitude segfaults during dependency resolution

Status in aptitude package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Hi.

  I just installed a new Ubuntu MATE 15.10 for my mom and I was
  selecting packages when aptitude simply crashed. I am using (for
  reasons beyond my control right now) the 32 bit version if that
  matters.

  I don't know if I can reproduce the problem or not, but I may try
  (despite the fact I do not have frequent access to this computer).

  If any further information is needed, please let me know.

  Thanks,

  Rogério Brito.
