Package: aptitude
Version: 0.6.3-3.2
Severity: important
Hi,
context: I've got the whole X Server 1.9 stack installed from experimental,
except a few video drivers. After having uploaded -ati/-radeon to
experimental, I tried to install them through the GUI, with '+' on them,
but that doesn't work because the unstable version is preferred, so they
appear as 'broken' (as expected). Then, in turn, I pick the experimental
version, and everything goes green again.
Unfortunately, hitting 'g' to perform the installation leads to this
assertion:
| Exception : ../../src/ui.cc:1389: void auto_fix_broken(): Assertion
"resman->resolver_exists()" failed.
That's reproducible.
(Full package name: xserver-xorg-video-ati and xserver-xorg-video-radeon.)
Trying the CLI, same kind of issues. Here's a transcript:
| sudo aptitude install xserver-xorg-video-ati xserver-xorg-video-radeon

That's reproducible as well.
As you can see below, I have Debian's testing, unstable, and
experimental repositories enabled, and only that.
Mraw,
KiBi.
