** Description changed: [Impact] Aptitude regularly crashes when trying to mark packages for deletion due to an infinite loop in a recursive function (improperly handled circular dependencies).

The patch is cherry-picked from the upstream Git repository, so upstream recognizes the bug and approves of this fix. However, upstream might have committed additional related changes (e.g., to fix a hypothetical flaw in this patch) without us realizing it. [Original Description] Hi. I just installed a new Ubuntu MATE 15.10 for my mom and I was selecting packages when aptitude simply crashed. I am using (for reasons beyond my control right now) the 32 bit version if that matters. I don't know if I can reproduce the problem or not, but I may try (despite the fact I do not have frequent access to this computer). If any further information is needed, please let me know.

I think that I found a way to (at least partially) reproduce the problem: if I press _ (underscore) after I have selected packages to be (automatically) uninstalled (so that they are purged instead of just uninstalled), then I get the segfault that described before.
