Thanks for checking. For the curious, I've found an answer via debian-users: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=401835 It appears order DOES matter when specifying what packages to install via aptitude and apt-get. This ambiguity is unfortunate (and is definitely a bug), but apparently solving the problem involves too much work and as such the bug is wontfix.
