Package: aptitude Version: 0.4.11.1-1 Severity: wishlist Many times aptitude starts with a solution that does not satisfies me, like "You want to upgrade git-core ? OK, I suggest you remove all git-* packages that depend on the old version.". In such a case, I have to explicitely refuse all suggested removals for the next suggestion to be right. It would be much easier to hit "r" on the header of the group of removal suggestions, just like we can hit [+-_=mM] on a group header in the main view.
You will know whether it is worth it, but maybe this report could be cloned as "aptitude resolver makes blatantly subobtimal decisions first" :). Especially since dealing with the resolver may not be intuitive to a newcomer (I remember myself failing to understand from the UI and having to read the doc). -- Package-specific info: Terminal: screen $DISPLAY is set. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (90, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.23.8-smp (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=french (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages aptitude depends on: ii apt [libapt-pkg-libc6. 0.7.11 Advanced front-end for dpkg ii libc6 2.7-10 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcwidget3 0.5.9-1 high-level terminal interface libr ii libept0 0.5.17 High-level library for managing De ii libgcc1 1:4.3.0-1 GCC support library ii libncursesw5 5.6+20080308-1 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii libsigc++-2.0-0c2a 2.0.18-2 type-safe Signal Framework for C++ ii libstdc++6 4.3.0-1 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libxapian15 1.0.5-1 Search engine library ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.3.dfsg-11 compression library - runtime Versions of packages aptitude recommends: pn aptitude-doc-en | aptitude-do <none> (no description available) ii libparse-debianchangelog-perl 1.1.1-2 parse Debian changelogs and output -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
