Hi Yes, thanks for bumping this across. I will leave it open for now as the bug is well specified and simple to investigate. I prefer a more conservative approach of keeping such reports open rather than closing just because e.g. lenny→squeeze upgrades are too old. The general issue has been reported a few times, where upgrading one package from a tight dependency set suggests to remove, rather than upgrade, the set. It will be nice to handle these sensibly, but it is perhaps something which aptitudes resolver model is not so great at. Anyway, this is a particularly nice test case for the behaviour, and it shall be merged or closed after more examination.
