Oh yes, they changed it...and I was just too stupid to change into the
natty chroot and got the result from my lucid install.

So, right, aptitude was degraded to optional and is not going to be
installed inside the natty chroot.

Anyways, I'm still not sure, if I should change the NFSROOT package list
from "aptitude" to "install".

I'm not a friend of having two package managers at the same time.

I would like to change the NFSROOT package list to "install", if noone
objects.
