Because pkgsync doesn't know aptitude's internal state -- it uses markauto and nomarkauto and then lets dist-upgrade work out what to add and what to remove (and this is the very core of what pkgsync does). If you give -s to markauto and nomarkauto, it's impossible to say what dist-upgrade will do, ie. aptitude -s dist-upgrade will give you the wrong answer. /* Steinar */ -- Homepage: http://www.sesse.net/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
