Package: aptitude Version: 0.4.4-4 Severity: normal *** Please type your report below this line *** Cheers!
When I type 'aptitude install fuse-utils/etch-backports libfuse2/etch-backports+M' I expect aptitude to install both packages from etch-backports and mark the libfuse2 package as being automatically installed. What happens is that the libfuse2 package doesn't get selected for installation, or perhaps it get deselected because "nothing depends on it". Thing is, fuse-utils does depend on it. So I assume this has to do with the fact the aptitude by default chooses to not mark dependencies when they are from etch-backports. I would expect this command, where I explicitly specify the origins of the packages, to have higher priority than the default apt configuration.
