I first got a bug installing glibc that I unfortunately can't report as I had it in my gpm buffer, but I forgot about it and rebooted, and when I just re-ran apt-get dist-upgrade, it worked, it was something about an internal error, was really weird. IIRC it was from dump.c, line 160. Here's one I _CAN_ log: Preparing to replace calife 2.8.4-2 (using .../calife_2.8.4b-1_i386.deb) ... Unpacking replacement calife ... dpkg: /home/wichert/sources/cvs/debian/x/dpkg-1.7.2/lib/dump.c:180: w_dependency: Assertion `yp->up == pigp' failed. E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg exited unexpectedly This happens every time.
