Package: aptitude
Version: 0.2.15.9-2
Severity: normal

I recently (a few minutes ago) did an `aptitude upgrade'. The libc6 pre-config
gave a warning about services needing restart. In response to the question of
whether or not to continue, I answered 'n', so I could go into maintenance mode
and continue from there. aptitude then said to continue the upgrade when the
services in question had been shut down. However, re-issuing the upgrade
command had no effect; aptitude simply went through its database scan then
immediately exited. I found it necessary to issue `aptitude install libc6',
followed by `aptitude upgrade' in order to complete the upgrade.

Expected result: Repeating the `upgrade' command after aborting (in this way,
at least) should make the upgrade proceed.

Actual result: No effect until libc6 manually upgraded.
