[Aptitude-devel] Bug#849370: aptitude: Aptitude crashes with SIGABRT on install command

[Jonathan Seeley]

I just built aptitude with the patch referenced by #836567 and it has
eliminated the crash, so it seems you were right and it is working as a
stop-gap measure.

'virtualbox' is one package which seems to consistently cause the crash for
me, even when using the CLI.
