It appears to me that bug 436749, bug 454941 and bug 382430 (yes, this
problem is pretty ancient ...) boil down to the same problem: "aptitude
update" does not use the same mechanism for storing this date/time
(touching /var/lib/apt/periodic/update-success-stamp) as "apt-get
update" or the update-manager (cf. bug 454941, comment 11).

Therefore this workaround should help: Use "aptitude update && touch
/var/lib/apt/periodic/update-success-stamp" (probably stored in some
custom shell script) or "apt-get update" instead of "aptitude update" in
the meantime.
