Control: close -1
Hi Josh and Ian, 2011-02-13 21:44 Josh Triplett:
Package: aptitude Version: 0.6.3-3.2 Severity: normal In doing an upgrade from lenny to squeeze, I noticed that diffutils and isc-dhcp-client got automatically installed due to dependencies from diff and dhcp3-client respectively, but neither package got marked as automatically installed.

Package: aptitude Version: 0.6.6-1 Followup-For: Bug #613276 The same happens for me during a routine weekly update of wheezy, with package libatk-wrapper-java-jni selected explicitly, and gconf-service + libgconf-2-4 selected for me by aptitude, but not marked as dependencies.
Specially during 2015 and 2016 I was working on improving the handling of automatic flags, which had been getting worse in the previous years, due to slight misadjustments between [lib]apt and aptitude growing apart over time. In particular, I tested this upgrading from old iceweasel to the new iceweasel which depends on firefox-esr, and it seems to work fine in all cases when I upgrade (firefox-esr is always marked as automatically installed). So I think that this is fixed, closing now, but if you still detect such problems please reopen or submit a new bug report. Cheers. -- Manuel A.
