Well, I don't think this is a problem in dpkg, but given the lack of
information I don't know where this could be reassigned. If you still
have the logs from that time around, could you send to the bug report
/var/log/dpkg.log /var/log/apt/term.log and /var/log/aptitude, or
whatever rotated log might be appropriate?

thanks,
