Package: aptitude
Version: 0.6.3-3
Followup-For: Bug #588089
I have the same issue, there is a workaround available; If you are searching for
"~i tryton", then type the 'i', use the cursor arrows to go back to the start,
and then type the '~', then navigate back and type ' tryton'. I found this since
if you press 'b' to find broken packages and then press '/' to search the '~b'
is still in the search dialog. If you then press '<backspace>' the program also
crashes.
Hope this helps.
