Package: aptitude
Version: 0.4.11.4-1
Followup-For: Bug #477038

The information given by aptitude now is much more cryptic and confusing:

% aptitude search laptop-mode-tools
i   laptop-mode-tools               - Scripts to spin down h
% aptitude why laptop-mode-tools
i   powertop Suggests laptop-mode-tools

As seen, the ouptut is more than uninformative, it's wrong.

Why would aptitude want to consider suggests for a possible explanation
is beyond me, too (as this doesn't cause aptitude to install
laptop-mode-tools).
