Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: aptitude

The man page for aptitude claims:

-d, --download-only : Download packages to the package cache as
necessary, but do not install or remove anything.

Every time I start aptitude (0.4.9-2ubuntu5) with either form of the
option, once the download is complete it proceeds to install the
downloaded packages.

Steps to reproduce:
* [sudo] aptitude -d [or --download-only]
* Select packages to install
* 'g' to review changes
* 'g' to start download

Expected result: packages are downloaded, return to selection screen
Actual result: packages are downloaded, installation takes place

** Affects: aptitude (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New
