Package: apt Version: 2.6.1 Followup-For: Bug #973260 X-Debbugs-Cc: okgomdjgbm...@gmail.com
This is still present today. "apt install --mark-auto XXX" will flip XXX to manual if already installed This complicates the managment of packages. Instead of just relying on autoremove, we have to make sure what we try to install isn't already installed.
