Same here, for example searching for libapr gives the following (wrong results, libapr1 is installed):
# aptitude search libapr
p libapr1 - Apache Portable Runtime Library
p libapr1-dbg - Apache Portable Runtime Library - Debugging Symbols
p libapr1-dev - Apache Portable Runtime Library - Development Headers
p libapreq2 - generic Apache request library
p libapreq2-dev - generic Apache request library - development files
p libapreq2-doc - generic Apache request library - documentation
p libapron - runtime libraries for APRON
p libapron-dev - an abstract interpretation library
p libapron-ocaml - runtime libraries for APRON (OCaml interface)
v libapron-ocaml-b3on5 -
p libapron-ocaml-dev - an abstract interpretation library (OCaml interface)
v libapron-ocaml-dev-b3on5 -
v libapron-ocaml-dev-q5lr0 -
v libapron-ocaml-q5lr0 -
i A libaprutil1 - Apache Portable Runtime Utility Library
p libaprutil1-dbd-freetds - Apache Portable Runtime Utility Library - FreeTDS Driver
p libaprutil1-dbd-mysql - Apache Portable Runtime Utility Library - MySQL Driver
p libaprutil1-dbd-odbc - Apache Portable Runtime Utility Library - ODBC Driver
p libaprutil1-dbd-pgsql - Apache Portable Runtime Utility Library - PostgreSQL Driver
p libaprutil1-dbd-sqlite3 - Apache Portable Runtime Utility Library - SQLite3 Driver
p libaprutil1-dbg - Apache Portable Runtime Utility Library - Debugging Symbols
p libaprutil1-dev - Apache Portable Runtime Utility Library - Development Headers
p libaprutil1-ldap - Apache Portable Runtime Utility Library - LDAP Driver
And here is the same search with ~i (this one shows the correct state):
# aptitude search ~ilibapr
i A libapr1 - Apache Portable Runtime Library
i libapr1-dev - Apache Portable Runtime Library - Development Headers
i A libaprutil1 - Apache Portable Runtime Utility Library
i A libaprutil1-dbd-sqlite3 - Apache Portable Runtime Utility Library - SQLite3 Driver
i A libaprutil1-ldap - Apache Portable Runtime Utility Library - LDAP Driver
And strange is that searching for libapr1 instead of libapr gives correct results too:
# aptitude search libapr1
i A libapr1 - Apache Portable Runtime Library
p libapr1-dbg - Apache Portable Runtime Library - Debugging Symbols
i libapr1-dev - Apache Portable Runtime Library - Development Headers
