I am able to reproduce the problem as described by Andrew.
Even more so, any user typed settings are not preserved. However the True/False
(showing an X) type of settings are preserved.
Another way to test is to cat the ~/aptitude/config file after any change. when
the settings are preserved,
Note than manually changing /root/.aptitude/config and adding:
aptitude::UI::Package-Display-Format %c%a%M%S %p %Z %v %V %t %i;
works. So it seems that aptitude and sudo are conflicting it terms of
where to save and restore the settings.
