Package: aptitude
Version: 0.6.4-1
Severity: normal
When I run aptitude as non-root, do changes (such as marking
packages as forbidden) and quit aptitude, these changes are
silently lost.
Aptitude should propose to become root, either at the first
change or before it is quit.

There is such a dialog for actions that require root immediately,
otherwise we just provide instructions.
Maybe this will change in the future, but not so close to freeze time.
