Is this normal for aptitude to hang?

thufir at dur:~# aptitude upgrade --download-only
No packages will be installed, upgraded, or removed.

I found:

http://us.generation-nt.com/answer/bug-631071-aptitude-hangs-while-
loading-cache-help-203816062.html

However, that doesn't seem exactly the same...

I think that this might be from interrupting an aptitude download?  I 
recently upgraded to 12.10 and have been upgrading the packages since.



thanks,

Thufir
