Package: aptitude
Version: 0.6.11-1
Severity: minor
Let's assume the following format string for package lists:
%c%a%M%S %?i %p# %Z %10D %10I %4r %20v %20V %t
Now configure some packages with explicit preferences along the lines of:
$ cat /etc/apt/preferences
Package: linux-image-* linux-headers-* linux-firmware-* firmware-*
*-firmware
Pin: release a=experimental
Pin-Priority: 1000
Package: linux-image-* linux-headers-* linux-firmware-* firmware-*
*-firmware
Pin: release a=unstable
Pin-Priority: 950
Package: *
Pin: release a=testing
Pin-Priority: 900
Package: *
Pin: release a=stable
Pin-Priority: 800
Package: *
Pin: release a=experimental
Pin-Priority: 750
Package: *
Pin: release a=unstable
Pin-Priority: 700
When browsing the various categories you will see various most packages without
any priority, as desired. But when looking into a section with kernel images,
development headers or firmware packages in them, mixed with other, you will
see stairs and other effects with misalignment of the columns.
It would be cool if you could ask Aptitude to skip the value as is now, but
still reserve a certain amount of space for it anyway.

BenBE.
