I forgot to mention two things:
- apt-get handles this fine (it previously didn't, which is why we
switched from apt-get to aptitude a few years ago...)
- This seems quite similar to bugs #341963 and #359171. However, both of
those are fairly old (aptitude 0.4.0 from '05 and 0.4.1 from '06,
respectively), and it looks like much of how the resolver works has been
retooled, so I decided to report this as a new bug. aptitude has not
previously given us this sort of trouble -- I seem to recall that when it
displayed a score, each individual removed package would count against the
score -- so I believe this to be a regression, not a five-year-old bug,
but I might be wrong.
