  I'm not sure what you mean about one round of resolution.  I can reproduce
this exactly [0] if I set Aptitude::Auto-Install=false (either via -o or in a
configuration file), which is why I was asking about ~/.aptitude/config.  When
I accept the suggested solution, I get a consistent result.

  [0] to really reproduce it exactly, I also need to set Recommends-Important
      to false, but I assume you know that's disabled.
