Strange, because that works just fine for me :-) But I've made sure
that my markings in aptitude are correct:

Have you been mixing use of apt-get and aptitude? Anything installed
outside of aptitude is assumed to be explicitly installed (i.e. not
marked auto).

Software is not manufactured, it is something you write and publish.
Keep Europe free from software patents, we do not want censorship
by patent law on written works.
"Sendmail" and "make" are two well known programs that are pretty widely
regarded as being debugged into existence. That's why their command
languages are so poorly thought out and difficult to learn. It's not
just you -- everyone finds them troublesome.
