Package: apt
Version: 0.7.20.2+squeeze1
Severity: normal
After installation of the latest version of apt, both aptitude and
synaptic have disappeared from the system. Attempts to install fail
because of unmet dependencies, including
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
aptitude: Depends: libapt-pkg-libc6.7-6-4.6
Depends: libept0 (>= 0.5.26) but it is not going to be
installed
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libept0: Depends: libapt-pkg-libc6.7-6-4.6
Attempting to install libapt-pkg-libc6.7-6-4.6 report "apt is already
the newest version"; so I'm stuck in a vicious cycle of dependency.

Version: 0.7.21
This should already be fixed by apt version 0.7.21 (and the
respective versions of its reverse dependencies) which recently
migrated to testing. So I'm closing this bug.
Cheers,
Steve
