Package: aptitude Version: 0.6.9-1~exp1 Severity: normal Hi,
I experienced the following already with some earlier aptitude version, but with 0.6.9 I ran into it nearly everytime I use the interactive mode: While "q" still closes open tabs, it no more quits the program and hence the only chance to save my changes (e.g. marking stuff as automatically installed) is to make some changes which result in installing or removing a packages so that the state is saved on "gg". How to more or less reproduce: I ran into it today by pressing "[", moving the marker to sysvinit-utils, pressing "M" and then looking around some more with "Enter", "d" and "r" and then suddenly "q" didn't prompt me anymore if I want to quit aptitude but just did nothing in the last open tab. Same counts for the "Quit Q" entry from the menu. -- Package-specific info:
