Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: aptitude

I did
$ aptitude why-not enlightenment
and it segfaulted
Strace attached (bzip2'ed to speed up/downloading)
Intrepid
$ aptitude --version
aptitude 0.4.11.3 compiled at Sep  2 2008 12:39:43
Compiler: g++ 4.3.2
Compiled against:
  apt version 4.6.0
  NCurses version 5.6
  libsigc++ version: 2.0.18
  Ept support enabled.

Current library versions:
  NCurses version: ncurses 5.6.20071124
  cwidget version: 0.5.12
  Apt version: 4.6.0

What it should have done:
Informed me that "enlightenment" is not actually a package, but that several 
things which are packages refer to it by that name.

This does not affect other packages or "aptitude why enlightenment",
although the latter does not indicate that e is not a package.

I have e16 installed via apt and e17 installed via the script mentioned
in the forums.
