Package: aptitude
Version: 0.4.4-4
Severity: normal
Way to reproduce:
$ aptitude install already-installed-package
I was trying to install a package which I didn't know was already
installed. The output indicated that basically nothing happened, so I
thought there must be an error somewhere. It took me some time to find out
that it was already installed. I think it would be more intuitive if the
output always said something about the packages given on the command line.
