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. -- Manuel A.
