I cannot confirm for aptitude 0.5.3.1 because I switched back to
aptitude
0.4.11.11. 0.5.3.1 depends on libapt-pkg-libc6.9-6-4.7, but this
is "UNAVAILABLE" even though I have an experimental, testing, unstable, and
stable repository in my sources file. :)

I had just pushed "Shift-C" to try to fetch the changelog for a
package.
Instead of downloading the changelog, the reported message is displayed.
I'll test a new version of aptitude once it is installable again!
Thanks!
