This bug was fixed in the package apt - 0.8.16~exp12ubuntu10
---------------
apt (0.8.16~exp12ubuntu10) precise-proposed; urgency=low
[ Malcolm Scott ]
* apt-pkg/packagemanager.cc:
- Fix a regression in the pre-depend handling: where a pre-depend option
other than the first specified is already installed, apt-get enters an
infinite loop (LP: #985852)
[ Michael Vogt ]
* apt-pkg/packagemanager.cc:
- add APT::pkgPackageManager::MaxLoopCount to ensure that the
ordering code does not get into a endless loop when it flip-flops
between two states
[ David Kalnischkies ]
* apt-pkg/cacheset.cc:
- actually return to the fallback modifier if we have detected we
should for packagenames which look like modifiers (Closes: #669591)
LP: #982716
