Okay. I'll try and get to filing a bug today. > > Also, does anyone know a good way to make aptitude display the > > section(topdir) in the UI?

You can get the whole > section, but not part of it. I experimented with "%s" and always got something like "games" or "admin", never "main/admin" or "non-free/games". It looks like "%s" expands to section(subdir) or maybe section(subdirs), and there's no way to get either the whole section or the section(topdir). I think my goal here (no know which Recommendations and Suggestions are not Free Software) ier s probably better handled with a grouping policy anyway, so I'll investigate that.
