Are you referring to: # General apt options that will be passed to all apt-get calls. # Use "-o quiet" instead of "-q" for aptitude compatibility. OPTIONS="-o quiet=1" in /etc/cron-apt/config? As you can see I'm already using the supposed equivalent for aptitude. Neither '-o quiet' or '-o quiet=1' seems to have any effect on aptitude when I invoke it directly. The aptitude reference manual doesn't even document such an option. The options follow a general format of Aptitude::*, such as Aptitude::CmdLine::Verbose=1. Perhaps I'd have better luck if I reverted back to having cron-apt use apt-get? I guess I'm just disappointed that after all the configuration files and supposed flexibility of cron-apt, it doesn't seem to handle the most basic and common situation well. -Tom -- Tom Metro Venture Logic, Newton, MA, USA "Enterprise solutions through open source."
