That is the description of “?widen” (match all versions), not “?any-version” (match packages). These are similar, the subtle difference may sometimes impact the results of combining search terms, though it should not in this case: > > naesten@hydrogen:~/hacking% aptitude versions '?exact-name(apt)' > i A 0.9.7.5 testing > 990 > p A 0.9.7.6 unstable > 500 > naesten@hydrogen:~/hacking% aptitude versions > '?exact-name(apt)?any-version(~Atesting)' > Package apt: > i A 0.9.7.5 testing > 990 > > I would expect to get the same results for both queries (there will > always be a version of "apt" in testing, right?), but I do not. so I agree that there is a bug here. Note that “?widen(~Atesting)” achieves the desired result.
