Hi,

Package: aptitude
Version: 0.8-1
Followup-For: Bug #822329
Dear Maintainer,
I wish to second the bug report. I have several machines of various ages and
speeds, and on some this is a true nuisance. I tried to install a modern Debian
(i.e., sid) on a raspberry, everything worked fine except for the several second
wait in aptitude. I admit I did not read through the bug report this is
supposed
to fix, but there should be a way to disable this new behaviour without breaking
basic functionality such as satifaction of "Recommends" in easy cases.
I am pretty sure that the delay does happen because your systems have
"Install recommended packages automatically" (aka
APT::Install-Recommends) enabled (it is, by default), and because
Recommends are already unfulfilled in the system.
"Views -> Audit recommendations" for a list of those already
unfulfilled.
If you install those recommended packages (or disable
APT::Install-Recommends, but I don't recommend that) the delay should
not happen. You might want to try this while a version fixing this
problem is not released.
Cheers.
