Package: aptitude
Version: 0.4.1-1
Severity: important

Context: after an update, hit 'U' to tag everything for upgrade.
Noticed an updated package which I don't want any more, and hit '_'.

Hello,

Thank you for your interest in improving Debian, and sorry to keep the
bug unattended for so long.  There's now an effort to review the open
bugs related with aptitude.

The bug was marked as unreproducible long ago, and it does not provide
much information to fix it -- it looks like random memory corruption
mixed with later reports of a failure in apt library.  The patch
provided cannot be applied now, the code is different.

Several years later, with new upstream versions and new versions of
all of the libraries that aptitude uses, the bug is basically
untraceable -- it's better that people open new bug reports if they
find new crashes.  Thus closing it.

Regards.
