Dear Maintainer,

Hi there. I have two packages, "apt" and "gir1.2-gtk-3.0", either of
which when installed (via dpkg -i, apt-get, or aptitude) will install
with no problems, but then continue to show up in the uninstalled state.
here's aptitude show output following a dpkg -i:

[skynet](0) $ aptitude show apt

authenticated sources and
   for installation, upgrade and removal of packages together with their 
dependencies

installable packages 
 * apt-cdrom to use removable media as a source for packages

While these are both SprezzOS packages, I'm using an unmodified Debian
Unstable dpkg. I don't doubt that I somehow messed up the package
generation, but this nonetheless seems a weird behavior/state. I've been
banging my head against this for a few hours with no luck.

Thanks!
