Insert the following block in the configuration file:
aptitude::UI::Styles "";
aptitude::UI::Styles::Default "";
aptitude::UI::Styles::Default::fg "black";
aptitude::UI::Styles::Default::bg "white";
There is an extensive paragraph on custumizing the colors in
the aptitude user's manual, available from the Help menu.
