Package: aptitude
Version: 0.7.8-1
Severity: important
On upgrade from the UI, aptitude wants to remove the gmp-ecm package.
The given reason is:
gmp-ecm was installed automatically; it is being removed because all of the ▒
packages which depend upon it are being removed: ▒
and no packages are listed!!!
ypig:~> aptitude why gmp-ecm
i libecm0 Recommends gmp-ecm (= 6.4.4+ds-5)
However, for the proposed upgrade, libecm0 is not upgraded/removed.
ypig:~> apt-show-versions -a libecm0
libecm0:amd64 6.4.4+ds-5 install ok installed
libecm0:amd64 6.4.4-2 stable ftp.fr.debian.org
No stable-updates version
libecm0:amd64 6.4.4+ds-5 testing ftp.fr.debian.org
libecm0:amd64 6.4.4+ds-5 unstable ftp.fr.debian.org
No experimental version
libecm0:amd64/testing 6.4.4+ds-5 uptodate
libecm0:i386 6.4.4-2 stable ftp.fr.debian.org
No stable-updates version
libecm0:i386 6.4.4+ds-5 testing ftp.fr.debian.org
libecm0:i386 6.4.4+ds-5 unstable ftp.fr.debian.org

ypig:~> apt-show-versions -a gmp-ecm
gmp-ecm:amd64 6.4.4+ds-5 install ok installed

No stable-updates version
gmp-ecm:amd64 6.4.4+ds-5 testing ftp.fr.debian.org
gmp-ecm:amd64 7.0+ds-1 unstable ftp.fr.debian.org
No experimental version
gmp-ecm:amd64/testing 6.4.4+ds-5 upgradeable to 7.0+ds-1
gmp-ecm:i386 6.4.4-2 stable ftp.fr.debian.org
No stable-updates version

gmp-ecm:i386 7.0+ds-1 unstable ftp.fr.debian.org
No experimental version

but "apt-get dist-upgrade -s" says that gmp-ecm can't be upgraded.
/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/10aptitude currently contains:

I've attached an archive of the /var/lib/aptitude directory.
