Package: aptitude
Version: 0.6.3-3.2+squeeze1
Severity: normal
Hi,
After upgrading a machine from lenny to squeeze, I noticed the following
discrepancy:
$ sudo aptitude install deborphan
The following NEW packages will be installed:
deborphan dialog{a} gettext-base{a}
0 packages upgraded, 3 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Need to get 512 kB of archives. After unpacking 3,117 kB will be used.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n/?] n
Abort.
$ sudo aptitude install --without-recommends deborphan
The following NEW packages will be installed:
deborphan
The following packages are RECOMMENDED but will NOT be installed:
dialog gettext-base
0 packages upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Need to get 100 kB of archives. After unpacking 553 kB will be used.
WARNING: untrusted versions of the following packages will be installed!
Untrusted packages could compromise your system's security.
You should only proceed with the installation if you are certain that
this is what you want to do.
deborphan
Do you want to ignore this warning and proceed anyway?
To continue, enter "Yes"; to abort, enter "No": No
Abort.
When I didn't use the --without-recommends option, I got no trust warning.
How does deborphan get untrusted when installed without its recommended
packages? This probably isn't specific to deborphan, I experienced similar
situation before, but right after the upgrade I thought things will
eventually unwrinkle.

Thanks,
Feri.

Oh, yes, you're right. The warning is shown after continuing from here.
I was confused by the fact that this question is skipped in the other
case, when no additional packages are going to be installed.
After an aptitude update, the warning isn't shown anymore, so I close
this not-a-bug. Instead, please chalk up another vote for #592990.

Sorry for the noise and thanks for the quick turnaround!
