Actual behavior

After upgrading deb-get to any version later than 03.6-1, running command "deb-get list" produces errors stating that caches for apps are empty and usually hangs midway through the list, and exits when any key is pressed. This behavior is consistent across multiple machines running same OS (Ubuntu 22.04) and has occurred since 0.3.6-1 was not latest release.

deb-get clean does not fix.

DEBGET_TOKEN variable is set with a valid Github PAT on all machines experiencing the issue.

echo $DEBGET_TOKEN

Many issues have been fixed since the 0.4.0-1 release. A new release is awaited but in the meantime you might find that grabbing deb-get from the HEAD of the main branch is beneficial. When you run deb-get update you should wait for the background process to build a cached list of supported apps before doing a deb-get list. You can keep an eye on progress using deb-get cache. After an install ( or adding an external repo ) you might need to do a couple of deb-get updates.
