Package: aptitude Version: 0.6.4-1.2 Severity: normal I have an amd64 system on which multiarch (with i386) is enabled. aptitude does not handle this gracefully. In interactive (ncurses) mode, I must manually correct problems with packages being out of sync, which is not really an acceptable situation. But that's another bug. This bug is that when I attempt to adjust the packages, I get errors like:
Internal error: the solver Install(libc-bin 2.13-21 <libc6 2.13-21 -> {libc-bin
2.13-21 libc-bin 2.13-21}>) of a supposedly unresolved dependency is already
installed in step 3218
except that there are a *lot* of these, so many that they scroll for
five or six seconds while I'm mashing Ctrl-L.
aptitude should not dump internal error messages to the terminal before
calling the appropriate ncurses function (probably endwin) unless
they're appropriately formatted with ncurses.
