Dear Maintainers,

Now, coq-iris is unbuildable by pbuilder in sid. This is due to an
endless loop in aptitude. To reproduce, run the following commands in
a clean sid chroot (pbuilder-satisfydepends-dummy.deb is attached):

  dpkg -i pbuilder-satisfydepends-dummy.deb
  aptitude -y -o "Aptitude::ProblemResolver::Hints::KeepDummy=reject pbuilder-satisfydepends-dummy :UNINST" install pbuilder-satisfydepends-dummy


Cheers,

It's not even necessary to use a .deb. In a clean sid chroot:

   apt-get install -y devscripts
   aptitude install -y libtext-csv-xs-perl

will trigger the endless loop.


Cheers,
