tags 406193 - unreproducible tags 406193 + confirmed thanks I can confirm this BR on both my EM64T (dual core) box running amd64 and a dual processor hppa (64-bit) box I have. I have never seen it on any of my i386 (single processor) systems; I also cannot remember seeing it on my sparc64 (single processor).
See http://people.debian.org/~fjp/tmp/aptitude_weirdness.png for a rather extreme example. Just after starting aptitude the screen was almost completely red. Restarting aptitude will normally give a "clean" display. Note that I have seen this before (for a fairly long time), but it seems to be getting worse recently. I'd be happy to do any targeted testing or provide further info. Cheers, FJP
