--- Begin Message ---Version: 0.6.0 I actually think this was never a bug: the usage message was added by the same commit that added "build-dep". But it's certainly there now: Unknown command "foo" aptitude 0.6.1.5 Usage: aptitude [-S fname] [-u|-i] aptitude [options] <action> ... Actions (if none is specified, aptitude will enter interactive mode): install - Install/upgrade packages. remove - Remove packages. purge - Remove packages and their configuration files. hold - Place packages on hold. unhold - Cancel a hold command for a package. markauto - Mark packages as having been automatically installed. unmarkauto - Mark packages as having been manually installed. forbid-version - Forbid aptitude from upgrading to a specific package version. update - Download lists of new/upgradable packages. safe-upgrade - Perform a safe upgrade. full-upgrade - Perform an upgrade, possibly installing and removing packages. build-dep - Install the build-dependencies of packages.
