Try running aptitude with no args and you'll get the curses interactive
screen.  You can use that to sort out exactly what aptitude wants to do
and why.  If you've never used this mode of aptitude, you may want to
get the aptitude manual; if so just get the deb with your web browser
and install it with dpkg.
