Package: aptitude
Version: 0.4.1-1.1
Severity: normal
I love the new feature by which when a package is broken, aptitude
offers a choice of ways to resolve the problem. But today I am
upgrading a machine that hasn't been touched for months, and with 400
new packages, if I type 'U', aptitude runs like crazy until it has a
process image of over 600MB, at which point it starts thrashing (I
have 512MB RAM). It's probably hard to test this, but if there's a
quadratic algorithm lurking somewhere, it might be the culprit.

Hi,
After 7 years and using ancient versions of the software, marked as
needing more info without any reply provided, I don't think that it
makes sense to follow-up this bug report now, so closing it.
Cheers.
