How long have you waited? Aptitude is saving some states at this position. Going black is what also happens if run in a screen session, but actually, everything is/should be still there if scroll back. At least that's for me. If I run aptitude inside an xterm, the about 1.5 terminal heights of black do not appear. Reason for this "black" is probably that aptitude goes back to fullscreen mode for a short moment and only then exits. > If, instead of pressing "q", I press Ctrl-C directly when I get the prompt > that > asks me to hit Enter, then aptitude quits just fine. Nope, it then can't store some states which it only stores afterwards, mostly stuff like if reinstallations were done etc. > I know little about the interaction of terminal programs and terminal > emulators, > so I started by reporting the bug here.
