Hello again,

just for information, apparently I can't reproduce the bug anymore. This
might mean that something has changed in my AppStream cache
configuration or perhaps some other reason I can't spot right now. The
aptitude version hasn't changed (and hopefully neither has its
configuration). Just thought it useful to mention this.
