Package: aptitude
Version: 0.4.10-1+b1
Severity: normal
Judging from aptitude's manpage I would have expected 'aptitude
safe-upgrade' to upgrade everything it can in a single run.
However, it needed multiple runs. At first run it upgraded a lot of
packages (> 250). Runnning it again and again kept upgrading 1-5
packages at a time. (I had to run it about 15 times to upgrade
everything.)

Due to the difficulty in reproducing this bug (as I don't know how to
save / reload the internal information aptitude stores) I don't think
I can really test that this is fixed.
However, since apr 12. 'the version in unstable' arrived in testing, I
installed it, and for the last few weeks I didn't see the bug.
So, I think this can be considered fixed.
Thanks,
Daniel Abel
