It looks like aptitude decided to show you the status of 2.87dsf-2 instead of 2.87dsf-1 (the installed version). Probably the best thing to do here is to display something like "upgrade from installed version" as the state for an upgrade, since I assume you probably want to see the upgrade candidate.
