Package: aptitude
Version: 0.4.6.1-1
Severity: important
Maybe this is part of a bigger picture but anyway:
I installed using command line aptitude (aptitude install ...) the
java-gcj-compat-plugin package.
Then:
mordor:~# aptitude show java-gcj-compat-plugin
Package: java-gcj-compat-plugin
State: installed
Automatically installed: yes
Version: 1.0.76-5
Priority: optional
Section: interpreters
Maintainer: Debian GCC Maintainers <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Uncompressed Size: 98.3k
Depends: java-gcj-compat (= 1.0.76-5), gappletviewer-4.2
Description: Web browser plugin to execute Java (tm) applets using gij
gcjwebplugin is a little web browser plugin to execute Java (tm) applets. It
is targeted for Mozilla and compatible browsers that support the NPAPI.
The package unconditionally uses the gij runtime.
So, aptitude show reports that the package was automatically installed which
obviously is wrong.
But both aptitude using the UI, and aptitude search report the package as NOT
automatically installed:
mordor:~# aptitude search java-gcj-compat-plugin
i java-gcj-compat-plugin
- Web browser plugin to execute Java (tm) applets using gij
mordor:~#
(the A flag is (correctly) missing).
