--- Begin Message ---Package: aptitude Version: 0.7.1-1 Severity: important Hi! I'm using apt from experimental (1.1~exp12), and aptitude from sid (0.7.1-1), which is linked against libapt-pkg4.16, sid's apt library. Just after upgrading apt from experimental, aptitude works fine. Immediately after doing the first «apt update», then suddenly aptitude loses track of any installed package, and considers all of them as obsolete/local, except for ~c ones. In addition I cannot mark the ~c ones as automatic. Here's the relevant “screenshot”: ,--- --\ Not Installed Packages (5) --- games - Games, toys, and fun programs (1) --- graphics - Utilities to create, view, and edit graphics files (1) --\ libs - Collections of software routines (3) --\ main - The main Debian archive (3) c libapt-inst1.7 <none> <none> c libexiv2-13 <none> <none> c libsrtp0 <none> <none> --- Obsolete and Locally Created Packages (2762) --- Virtual Packages (1058) `--- I'm also using a Deb822 formatted sources.list file. Please let me know if you cannot reproduce, and I'll try to provide more information. Thanks, Guillem

The apt version in experimental, does not like Deb822 formatted sources.list in /etc/apt/sources.list, it requires them to be placed in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*.sources, and libapt-pkg from sid, does not understand those files at all, so aptitude does not see any repository. Thus closing, sorry about the noise. Thanks, Guillem
