Bug#622719: aptitude forgets automatically installed state on package upgrade selection
This changed in revision 2085.1.1 of apt. Fer crying out loud, if I had the time I'd just ditch their handling of the auto flag and do it myself. What's especially frustrating is that they tried to accommodate aptitude, but they didn't understand what they were doing. Guess it's really my fault for not keeping up on this stuff. I guess that as a workaround (ew) I can save the auto flag before I call MarkInstall and restore it afterwards.

Odd, nothing changed on my end. Probably the apt guys changed their behavior in some incompatible way.

Bug#622719: aptitude forgets automatically installed state on package upgrade selection
Package: aptitude Version: 0.6.3-3.2 Severity: normal When in the list of upgradable packages I select a package or a package group for upgrade, aptitude forgets that the package (or all automatically installed packages in the group) was automatically installed I preferred the old behaviour when the package was upgraded, and aptitude kept the automatically installed flag. -- Package-specific info: aptitude 0.6.3 compiled at Apr 2 2011 22:19:05 Compiler: g++ 4.5.2 Compiled against: apt version 4.10.1 NCurses version 5.8 libsigc++ version: 2.2.4.2 Ept support enabled.
