Subject: aptitude: symbol lookup error: aptitude: undefined symbol: _ZNK7tagcoll4coll4FastISsSsE13getTagsOfItemERKSs

Date: Thu, 24 Oct 2013 08:36:59 +0200

Package: aptitude
Version: 0.6.8.2-1.2
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

the latest version of aptitude does not start. I already tried to uninstall
debtags for instance but invoking aptitude always finishes with the undefined
symbol _ZNK7tagcoll4coll4FastISsSsE13getTagsOfItemERKSs message.

Kind regards

Sebastian Bremicker

Looks like the new libept1.4.12 inadvertently dropped that symbol.

Downgrading that package to 1.0.9 should help.
