I'm raising the severity to important now because it corrupts the
display of aptitude when doing an update; due to that, aptitude
still says "Loading cache" and appears to be frozen (though this
disappears after a Ctrl-L). This is very confusing.

IMHO, this bug should really be fixed before the next release.
