[Aptitude-devel] Bug#613276: aptitude didn't mark an automatically installed package as automatically installed

[Ian Zimmerman]

Package: aptitude
Version: 0.6.6-1
Followup-For: Bug #613276

The same happens for me during a routine weekly update of wheezy, with
package libatk-wrapper-java-jni selected explicitly, and gconf-service +
libgconf-2-4 selected for me by aptitude, but not marked as
dependencies.

Terminal: rxvt-unicode
$DISPLAY is set.
