hi Daniel, I am sorry to say that the aptitude compiled by myself "Segment fault" with and without your patch. I don't know why.
I just do the following: (1) apt-get source aptitude (2) cd aptitude-0.4.0 (3) fakeroot debian/rules binary (4) dpkg -i aptitude_0.4.0-3_i386.deb It seems that there are some problems with sigc++-2.0. I have to install libsigc++-2.0-dev to compile and libsigc++-2.0-0c2a to install and run aptitude(binary compiled by myself). But the official aptitude depends on libsigc++-2.0-0c2. I am not sure if this difference cause "segmentation fault".
