Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: aptitude

After upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10 ubuntu,
when I use aptitude for any operation, then it wants to remove many of my 
applications each time.

This does not happen when I use synaptic.

When I use apt-get then the situation is explained "The following
packages were automatically installed and are no longer required".

What is the problem:
  1. I would expect aptitude to also just offer to remove this packages, not 
force it on me. To behave like apt-get
  2. Why are so many applications selected? This are not just some libraries or 
something, this are applications that I use.
  3. I thought upgrader (to 9.10) already removed unneeded stuff (for example 
"quiteinsane" was removed, since it is obsolite application - not maintained in 
debian)
