Sorry to bother you again, but while this looked very good as
potential cause (or actually still does), I can't reproduce it inside
a Sid pbuilder chroot. So I assume there's another detail which is
required, too, to reproduce it.

Some more ideas to check:

* Do you have any custom settings for settings influencing aptitude's
  package display like "Aptitude::UI::Package-Display-Format" or
  "Aptitude::UI::Default-Grouping"?

* Under which locale settings does it happen for you?

If you neither use any of these settings nor use a non-english locale,
is there any chance that you can install these packages (for
bookworm/sid, otherwise run "find-dbgsym-packages aptitude" from the
debian-goodies package) on one of the affected machines:

strace aptitude-dbgsym libapt-pkg6.0-dbgsym
libboost-iostreams1.74.0-dbgsym libbz2-1.0-dbgsym libc6-dbg
libcap2-dbgsym libcwidget4-dbgsym libelogind0-dbgsym libgcc-s1-dbgsym
libgcrypt20-dbgsym libgpg-error0-dbgsym liblz4-1-dbgsym
liblzma5-dbgsym libncursesw6-dbgsym libsigc++-2.0-0v5-dbgsym
libsqlite3-0-dbgsym libstdc++6-dbgsym libtinfo6-dbgsym libudev1-dbgsym
libuuid1-dbgsym libxapian30-dbgsym libxxhash0-dbgsym libzstd1-dbgsym
zlib1g-dbgsym

And then run "strace -o aptitude-1035976.strace aptitude" and send me
that file? (Probably best in compressed form.)

Because that's what I just wanted to do if I would have been able to
reproduce it. :-)
