Whaa?!??! Wait a sec. This just an unsubstantiated claim.
Since I learned about aptitude (a few years ago?), I have been using it
consistently. It gives more information than apt-get and, as this poster
implied, has not misbehaved at all as compared to apt-get. So, as Boyd
has suggested, ignore this poster on this.
To the OP: you are probably doing something wrong with your sources.list
(did you ever change it after installation?). It would be a good
starting point to see what are its contents and if there is anything
fishy over there.
Once that is done, I would post here what aptitude shows you it wants to
do and ask if there anything amiss.
Regards.
