Package: aptitude Version: aptitude/0.6.11-1 Severity: normal Hi, [APT Developers: Feel free to reassign if you think that's an APT issue.] aptitude has severe issues downloading package lists since apt version 1.1~exp4 (worked fine with 1.1~exp3). Downloading packages still works fine for me, though. I haven't checked if a BinNMU (i.e. recompiling aptitude against apt 1.1~exp4) would help. If that's the case, one of apt's libraries should probably sport a "Breaks:" header against older versions of the according apt library.
There were more apt versions since then and you recompiled aptitude against the version of apt in experimental. Is this still a problem with the latest iterations? Cheers. -- Manuel A. Fernandez Montecelo <manuel.montez...@gmail.com>
