Package: apt
Version: 1.8.4
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,
after updating the system, including the exiv2 and libexiv2-dev
packages, relaunching the update command:

$ apt-get upgrade
Lettura elenco dei pacchetti... Fatto
Generazione albero delle dipendenze
Lettura informazioni sullo stato... Fatto
Calcolo dell'aggiornamento... Fatto
I seguenti pacchetti saranno RETROCESSI:
  exiv2 libexiv2-dev
0 aggiornati, 0 installati, 2 retrocessi, 0 da rimuovere e 0 non aggiornati.
È necessario scaricare 0 B/999 kB di archivi.
Dopo quest'operazione, verranno occupati 0 B di spazio su disco.
Continuare? [S/n] ^C

if I repeat the update command (already executed), there is
always an update to be performed on the same packages.

As far as I can see these packages appear in two repository:

$ apt-cache policy exiv2 libexiv2-dev

exiv2:
  Installed: 0.27.2-3
  Applicant: 0.27.2-3
  Version table:
 *** 0.27.2-3 100
        100 http://debian.fastweb.it/debian experimental / main amd64 Packages
        100 / var / lib / dpkg / status
     0.27.2-3 750
        750 http://www.deb-multimedia.org sid / main amd64 Packages
     0.25-4 700
        500 http://debian.fastweb.it/debian stable / main amd64 Packages
        700 http://debian.fastweb.it/debian sid / main amd64 Packages

libexiv2-dev:
  Installed: 0.27.2-3
  Applicant: 0.27.2-3
  Version table:
 *** 0.27.2-3 100
        100 http://debian.fastweb.it/debian experimental / main amd64 Packages
        100 / var / lib / dpkg / status
     0.27.2-3 750
        750 http://www.deb-multimedia.org sid / main amd64 Packages
     0.25-4 700
        500 http://debian.fastweb.it/debian stable / main amd64 Packages
        700 http://debian.fastweb.it/debian sid / main amd64 Packages

The problem is, that although the package has been installed from the
multimedia repository (pin 750), however in the apt-cache policies it
appears to be (incorrectly) installed by experimental repository, so
the misunderstanding is created and the package is considered to be
reinstalled.

Is it possible to fix the problem?

Thanks,
Antonio
