This command works:

aptitude -v --schedule-only install `perl -pe 's/\s+\w+\n/ /;' dpkg-select.txt`

But, it's quite bulky.  Also, I have my /var/lib/apt and
/var/lib/aptitude symlinked, so I'm not sure if that's required for
the dpkg -get command to work.  And of course, this is only the second
half of the bug.

In any case, this is a quick fix 6-year bug with a ton of usefulness.
With all of the talk about aptitude eventually replacing apt-get, bugs
like this one and the lack of ability to compile from deb-src packages
(bugs #299678, #403372, #468897) hinder that goal.
