[Aptitude-devel] Bug#720386: aptitude: Upgrade marks newly installed packages as manually installed

[Vincent Lefevre]

Package: aptitude
Version: 0.6.8.2-1
Severity: normal

If I do an upgrade (U), I get:

--\ Packages being removed because they are no longer used (1)                  
idA libopenmpi1.3    -3,988 kB 1.4.5-1                  1.4.5-1                 
--\ Packages being automatically installed to satisfy dependencies (2)
piA libcr0           +98.3 kB  <none>                   0.8.5-2                 
piA libhwloc-plugins +74.8 kB  <none>                   1.7.1-1                 

and

--\ Packages to be installed (2)
pi  libhwloc5        +270 kB   <none>                   1.7.1-1                 
pi  libopenmpi1.6    +6,330 kB <none>                   1.6.5-3                 
--\ Packages to be upgraded (4)
iu  fftw2            -27.6 kB  2.1.5-1                  2.1.5-1+b1              
iuA libfftw3-3                 3.3.3-5                  3.3.3-5+b1              
iuA libfftw3-double3 +65.5 kB  3.3.3-5                  3.3.3-5+b1              
iuA libfftw3-single3 +49.2 kB  3.3.3-5                  3.3.3-5+b1              

libhwloc5 and libopenmpi1.6 shouldn't be marked as manually installed!

I've attached the /var/lib/apt/extended_states and /var/lib/dpkg/status
files (compressed) before the upgrade.
