I believe I see a variant of this problem. I have several non-free packages
that should have been marked as removable by pkgsync long time ago, yet
aptitude plain refuses to remove them. "aptitude markauto opera" simply does
nothing ("0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 3 not
upgraded." -- the three not upgraded should not be related). "aptitude remove
opera" removes it with no scruples at all.

The fun thing is that this seems to work for some (non-free?) packages -- for
instance, if I install a random unneeded library and then markauto it,
aptitude happily removes it.

FWIW, I'm using aptitude 0.4.6.1-1.
