Package: python-apt
Version: 0.7.97.1
Severity: normal

If a package is marked for removal the required_space property of the
apt.cache.Cache returns Not a Number. It should be a negative value to
represent disk space which will be freed. Why is a float used instead of
a long?

>>> c = apt.Cache()
>>> p = c["xterm"]
>>> p.mark_delete()
>>> c.required_space
nan
