Bug#487330: apt-cache depends --recursive is completely bogus

[Neil Mayhew <neil_mayhew@users.sourceforge.net>]

Package: apt
Version: 0.7.14+b1
Severity: normal


The output of apt-cache depends --recursive doesn't look anything like
the output of apt-rdepends. For example, apt-cache says that rpm is a
dependency of libgtkhtml3.14-19. That's definitely bogus!
