In the past, I've seen such deadlocks occassionally. But haven't had
such a case for one or two years now. Back then it usually sufficed to
also remove the according file in /var/lib/apt/lists/ or, in the worst
case, to empty /var/lib/apt/lists/ completely.

Since things like package list downloads are not done by aptitude
itself but by calling functions from libapt-*, I'm reassigning this to
apt.

                Regards, Axel
