Package: aptitude Version: 0.4.11.11-1~lenny1 Severity: normal Hi On an upgrade from etch to lenny aptitude always forces me to remove cacti (also see bug #514342).

Did you continue to see this issue after that occasion? The resolver was heavily changed in the versions after the one that you are using. I am not sure if we can do much about this bug report now if it's only this old case. Cheers. -- Manuel A. Fernandez Montecelo <manuel.montez...@gmail.com>
