--- Begin Message ---Package: aptitude Version: 0.4.4-4 Severity: normal Maybe this is related to #394772 aptitude: Packages being automatically installed not always shown Today when I upgraded my sid chroot, aptitude said it would automatically remove two packages, tetex-base and tetex-doc, and also that it would remove those packages, but the total count of removed packages was 81, not 2. And in fact a lot of packages was removed. A screenshot with the displayed list of packages, including to-be-REMOVED, is at http://people.debian.org/~frank/aptitude.gif and http://people.debian.org/~frank/aptitude2.gif http://people.debian.org/~frank/aptitude3.gif http://people.debian.org/~frank/aptitude4.gif show which packages were actually removed.

We now have one list with tags, looks like this: # aptitude install -Pr i3 The following NEW packages will be installed: dunst{a} i3 i3lock{a} libxcb-dpms0{a} 0 packages upgraded, 4 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded. Need to get 70.8 kB of archives. After unpacking 262 kB will be used. Do you want to continue? [Y/n/?] Looks to me it as if this issue is already solved. Hence closing the bug report with the version currently in Sid/Wheezy.
