You'll have to download and compile the source with debugging symbols. apt-get build-dep aptitude apt-get source aptitude cd aptitude-0.4.6.1 CXXFLAGS="-g -O0 -fno-inline" dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -us -uc -b sudo dpkg -i ../aptitude_0.4.6.1-1.1_i386.deb You could also just run ./configure && make, then install aptitude in /usr/local or just run it from the build directory.
