[Aptitude-devel] Bug#956390: aptitude -o complains about empty value

Package: aptitude
Version: 0.8.11-7

when I want to clear a config value, aptitude complains about syntax:

# aptitude -o Acquire::http::Proxy= install
-o requires an argument of the form key=value, got Acquire::http::Proxy=

this can be worked around with quoting empty quotes, e.g.:

# aptitude -o 'Acquire::http::Proxy=""' install
 
but aptitude should install empty value after '='
