Sorry, there was a misunderstanding. What I could not reproduce was
what was in your initial report:

| How can I select and deselect options in the preferences menu, if
| there is no mouse available, e.g. on the console? Something like 'x',
| 'y' or the space bar did not work for me.

This was http://bugs.debian.org/451765 (and not #453853 where you seem
to have replied to). This bug has been closed long ago -- 6 years ago.

But Daniel Burrows cloned and retitled the bug report #451765 into
#453853 for another note in your second mail:

| BTW, using [Shift-D] to hide the lower part of the Preferences
| screen doesn't work, either. I can use the arrow keys to scroll

This bug still exists in all versions of aptitude currently present in
Debian.

The same issues btw. exists in the conflict resolution suggestions
view. Retitling accordingly (and fixing s/Control/Shift/ in the bug
title).
