[Aptitude-devel] Bug#806595: aptitude: now it crashes

[Jason Woofenden]

Package: aptitude
Version: 0.7.6-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

Thanks for working on this!

I just updated everything today (sid) and now instead of the error
dialog about dropping privs, I get a segfault when I press ``shift-C``

	# aptitude
	Ouch!  Got SIGSEGV, dying..
	zsh: segmentation fault  aptitude

Please let me know what I can do to gather more information if that
would be helpful.

I used reportbug to generate the template for this email, so I'm
hoping that you'll find below all the details about my system,
versions, etc that you need.
