Version: 0.3.16
Severity: normal
Hi,
The following typescript shows that apt fails to autoclean the
tetex* .debs, even though tetex is not installed. Invoking
`apt-get clean' and `dpkg --forget-old-unavail' did not make a
difference, and also did not cleanup the `tetex-french' package
entry.

autoclean removes files that are no longer in the archive, not that you
do not have installed, so it works entirely as it should - read the man
page.
