Package: aptitude Version: 0.2.15.9-5 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
aptitude no longer functions as of the latest upgrade of the package. The error looks like it is getting the wrong version of some library, or is otherwise missing a dependency. This error happens after aptitude upgrade (or install) has downloaded packages, and is about to install them. Using aptitude update works fine; apt-get has no problems. # aptitude upgrade Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree...
