I think it's always been that way. Mind you, at least you get a message in
karmic. I don't.

And regarding filing a bug... I'm afraid that eventually I gave up filing
bugs against karmic. I'd had my fill of WONTFIX responses (which is mostly
why I went back to hardy -- I had to get work done and there didn't seem
much reason to be optimistic that karmic was going to improve appreciably.
I live in some slight hope that lucid will be better; at the very least
perhaps state-of-the-art support for C++ developers will be restored).
