Package: aptitude
Version: 0.4.11.9-1
Severity: minor

Man page says:
       extract-cache-subset
           Extract a subset of the package cache to the specified directory. If 
no packages are listed, the entire
           package cache is copied;

This sounds like you are talking about /var/cache/apt/archives/.
Please reword somehow, mentioning what directories are copied for clarity.

Also there is no need for the command to create empty files, e.g.,
$ aptitude extract-cache-subset ii tk5
$ find ii -empty|wc
     18      18    1471
or copy backup files that don't get read, like
/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/10jidanni.~1~
