Package: aptitude
Version: 0.4.11.9-1
The upgrade here is from 14.0.1-2+b1 of the various sox packages to
14.1.0-1.
In this upgrade, libsox-fmt-ogg disappears, its functionality subsumed
into libsox-fmt-base. The latter package has a Replaces: header
indicating this.

Accept this solution? [Y/n/q/?]
-----------------------------------------
Now Aptitude *is* reaching the right conclusion here, but it *looks*
like it's decided to disable .ogg support! Only after manually
inspecting the new package does it become clear that the -base package
should support this functionality now.
So it would be clearer to the user that it's OK to proceed if it
indicated somehow that the package it was going to remove was replaced
by one it was keeping.
