Control: tags -1 + pending

Hi,

2005-07-26 23:23 Brian Kimball:
Package: aptitude
Version: 0.2.15.9-3
Severity: minor

Hi, currently %r fails to count reverse dependencies via virtual
packages.  For example, mawk's rdepends count is 0, but in actuality
base-files depends on it through the "awk" virtual package.

The consequence of this is that occasionally I go to delete a package
that I don't think I need (because %r shows 0 and I don't personally
want the package) and then all of a sudden I've got broken packages that
I have to investigate.

This was, ironically, caused by your patch to address #270057.

PkgIterator::ProvidesList() doesn't include virtual packages provided by
the visible version (should use VerIterator::ProvidesList()).

Fixed now, marking as +pending.
