Package: aptitude Version: 0.7.5-3 Severity: minor Dear Maintainer,
when installing a package that requires dependencies, aptitude lists the dependencies that will be installed automatically ("Packages being automatically installed..."). In the lower half of the terminal window it shows information which package required this dependency, and what version of that depending package was installed/is going to be installed. But the information on the versions is more mysterious than it has to be. "installed, none" and its translations like "Installiert, nichts" require second thought -- at first sight, this seems to say something is installed, with an additional ", none" -- maybe a package without version information? Spoken language doesn't work in such a reverse notation way. Please replace this with a simple "not installed" to improve usability. Thanks for your work!
