Package: aptitude
Version: 0.2.11-1
Severity: important
I mark this as "important" since I define the usability of this package
as directly related to how usable it can be as the primary form of
package management on the system :)
When using CLI mode with the --without-suggests and
--without-recommends, instead of simply not deciding to install those
packages, it seems to want to *remove* the packages, actively. Observe:
[ [EMAIL PROTECTED]: ~ ]$ sudo aptitude --without-suggests --without-recommends
install cupsys cupsys-bsd cupsys-client cupsys-driver-gimpprint

'nuf said? :) I don't hink that that's the intended behaviour of the
options - if I'm wrong, feel free to close this bug ;)
P.S.: 'sudo aptitude -i' doesn't want to remove/install any packages -
so the above list was generated on-the-fly, nothing stateful involved
with respect to the state of my selections.

Version: 0.4.5-1
Package: aptitude
For some reason, these bugs didn't get closed when 0.4.5-1 was
uploaded.
(these should all be aptitude bugs. I checked them by hand before
closing, but I could have typoed; I apologize if I hit anyone else's
bugs but my own!)
