Bug#139994: apt: apt-get(8) error

[Lazarus Long <lazarus@overdue.ddts.net>]

Package: apt
Version: 0.5.4
Severity: normal

       build-dep
              build-dep  causes  apt-get to install/remove packages in
              an attempt to satisfy the build dependencies for a source
              packages. Right now virtual package build depends choose
              a package at random.

That's not how it just behaved here; it advised me of the various package
and told me I should pick one, then stopped processing.

The man page needs updating.
