Sorry.
It is work in progress. For now you will have to "apt-get update" and then you can use aptitude for everything else. I never use aptitude and after doing a test upgrade of an older sid to current with aptitude I'm verry much affirmed on that. The last ~50 packages I upgraded with "apt-get upgrade" again because the aptitude interface just wouldn't just do it. Aptitude even suggested I downgrade some package from 1.2-3 (64bit flavour) to 1.2-3~18 (32bit flavour) despite the later being pinned down. That is just horribly broken. apt-get just updated the package and its dependency instead. >> MfG >> Goswin > > I feel good intentions, but a poor result.
