Bugzilla – Bug 143340
Failure in the package apt 0.5.15cnc7

after installation the file /etc/sysonfig/autoupdate is not created from /var/adm/fillup-templates/sysconfig.autoupdate This results in a error message from daily cron job. copying the fillup template to /etc/sysonfig/autoupdate solves the problem.
/etc/sysconfig/autoupdate should be created when installing the package apt-libs and as far as I tested it is indeed created.
There is indeed a bug, so reopening.
This is rather embarrassing: the apt-libs package tries to create the sysconfig file but the template is part of the apt package. So the sysconfig file is only created if apt-libs is installed *after* the apt package. I've changed that for the next version of SUSE LINUX.
