Hi,
thanks for the bug report.

Debian's BTS uses package versions, not upstream versions. I've
corrected the version accordingly.

I'm not completely sure why this is reported to Debian.
I currently assume that you tried to build Debian's aptitude package
on Ubuntu 16.10. If not, please correct me.

Debian has google-mock 1.8.0 since November 2016 and that version has
changed paths where to find Google Mock. Aptitude was adapted to that
path change with the 0.8.4-1 upload.
So the cause for your issue is likely that this change made aptitude
incompatible with building against google-mock versions before 1.8.0.
This means that we probably should restrict the google-mock
build-dependency to ">= 1.8.0". Will take care of that.

Probably installing a newer version of google-mock.
