Whaa?!??! Wait a sec. This just an unsubstantiated claim. Since I learned about aptitude (a few years ago?), I have been using it consistently. It gives more information than apt-get and, as this poster implied, has not misbehaved at all as compared to apt-get. So, as Boyd has suggested, ignore this poster on this. To the OP: you are probably doing something wrong with your sources.list (did you ever change it after installation?). It would be a good starting point to see what are its contents and if there is anything fishy over there. Once that is done, I would post here what aptitude shows you it wants to do and ask if there anything amiss. Regards. -- Please reply to this list only.
