It wasn't for a long time (couple of weeks), though.

Well, I wasn't aware that it was fixed, as you understood.

I didn't know it was in sid... And I did find out about the 'hold' 
command of aptitude earlier today, which also fixes it. I've been 
running against this problem for much longer than today, so I got a bit
