Package: aptitude
Version: 0.2.15.9-6
Severity: normal

aptitude has a bit of an odd tendency to do its initialization twice:

  baby:~> LANG=C sudo aptitude install nonexistant-package
  Reading package lists... Done
  Building dependency tree... Done
  Reading extended state information       
  Initializing package states... Done
  Reading task descriptions... Done  
  Building tag database... Done    
  Couldn't find any package whose name or description matched 
"nonexistant-package"
  The following packages have been kept back:
    abiword-common abiword-gnome ndiswrapper-utils 
  0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 3 not upgraded.
  Need to get 0B of archives. After unpacking 0B will be used.

  [and here the second initialization:]
  Reading package lists... Done
  Building dependency tree... Done
  Reading extended state information       
  Initializing package states... Done
  Reading task descriptions... Done  
  Building tag database... Done    
  
This is rather slow and a bit annoying -- I have no idea why it insists
on doing the last part, and can see no bad effects if I Ctrl-C it.
