Ok, good to know that this should work in theory.

I'm using aptitude 0.8.3-1+b1 here and as I showed in
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=841347#36

apt and aptitude have a different view regarding the autobit.

I'm happy to provide more information if you tell me what you need.

Regards,
Michael
