aptitude logging question

[Jude DaShiell]

Is it possible just using aptitude to log what happens as a result of 
system upgrades and package installations?  I had a situation with 
x11-common and xserver-xorg where --print-installation-architecture had 
been used.  I'm wondering if I had configured aptitude correctly aptitude 
could have left me a file with the package names along with warnings and 
errors in it so that if there were more than just those two packages this 
had happened to I could fix all of them just using that log.  Of course a 
log like that would be dangerous if dpkg ever went into one of its fatal 
error loops and filled up the disk space.  In the event debian got say 
/tmp filled to maximum and the computer was rebooted to bring debian up 
again, would debian be able to come up running?
