P.S., doing aptitude install imagemagick causes the infinite loop as seen in 825897.
According to [1] [2]: Version Result Build date 8:6.8.9.9-7+b2 (sid) Maybe-Successful 2016-04-08 09:10:07 8:6.8.9.9-7+b1 (sid) Maybe-Successful 2016-02-02 01:40:12 I guess that you still had 8:6.8.9.9-7+b1 ~2 months later because you haven't upgraded that one for a while, or similar, and I am not sure either why aptitude wants to install/reinstall/reprocess/whatever imagemagick at that version, but if it wants and it's not in the mirrors (and it won't be by now), this error will be always generated. The packages to be installed disappear from below apt/aptitude's feet. Perhaps the "infinite loop" (problem with imagemagick's installation / dpkg scripts) has something to do in this case as to why that version is selected for processing. Do you have any more info to know why 8:6.8.9.9-7+b1 instead of +b2 is chosen? What's the current status of imagemagick? (e.g. half configured or something?). In the meantime, downloading the package and installing it "by hand" with dpkg or similar is perhaps possible as a workaround.
