Aptitude support was added on top of apt-get precisely due to the Debian bug #503215 that you mention where apt-get fails when a package is non-existent, which we have run into when using PTS on older versions of Ubuntu. The --allow-untrusted was also added for another bug, but I can remove that upstream as I believe it affected an unofficial Ubuntu derivative and not Ubuntu itself.
