Comment 17 for bug 1538438

If this crash is fixed by the commit to which David pointed, then that is fixed in version 1.2.12 of apt which is now in Debian. Rather than waiting to see if that version does not appear in the errors bucket, keeping in mind there are only a handful of crashes about 1.2.11, I think we should upload the fix to -proposed for Xenial and see what happens.
