Title:
  aptitude --download is blocked

Status in “aptitude” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  The command

  aptitude -d full-upgrade
  or 
  aptitude -d dist-upgrade

  # aptitude -d dist-upgrade 
  No packages will be installed, upgraded, or removed.
  0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
  Need to get 0 B of archives. After unpacking 0 B will be used.

  I hope a long time but get stuck. It never ends. I have to do
  control-c

  But 
  aptitude full-upgrade 

  works fine

  # aptitude  full-upgrade
  No packages will be installed, upgraded, or removed.

  Description: terminal-based package manager (terminal interface only)
   aptitude is a package manager with a number of useful features, including: a mutt-like syntax for matching packages in a flexible manner, dselect-like persistence of user actions,
   the ability to retrieve and display the Debian changelog of most packages, and a command-line mode similar to that of apt-get. 

   aptitude is also Y2K-compliant, non-fattening, naturally cleansing, and housebroken. 

   This package contains a version of aptitude compiled with only the classic terminal-based interface (using curses).  For an experimental graphical interface, see the package
   aptitude-gtk.
