[Aptitude-devel] Bug#1070889: aptitude: bind() buggy

[Wu Shunchao]

Package: aptitude
Version: 0.8.13-6
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-Cc: infoagee at qq.com

search pattern
  " ^libc6$ ?for x: ?depends( ?for y: ?depends( ?=x ) ) "
will match libc6,

but after bind() added, the pattern
  " ^libc6$ ?for x: ?depends( ?for y: ?y:depends( ?=x ) ) "
returns nothing.

And Example 2.3 & 2.5 on page "Search term reference" behave the same.
https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/aptitude/ch02s04s05.en.html

I think there's a bug somewhere.
