I can't upgrade pidgin from version 2.0.1-1 to 2.2.0-1, it would get
removed in the process:
$ LANG=C apt-cache policy pidgin pidgin-data
pidgin:
Installed: 2.0.1-1
Candidate: 2.2.0-1
Version table:
2.2.0-1 0
500 ftp://ftp.de.debian.org testing/main Packages
*** 2.0.1-1 0
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
pidgin-data:
Installed: 2.0.1-1
Candidate: 2.2.0-1
Version table:
2.2.0-1 0
500 ftp://ftp.de.debian.org testing/main Packages
*** 2.0.1-1 0
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
If I want to upgrade pidgin, pidgin-data is scheduled for upgrade and
pidgin is scheduled for removal:

If I specify both packages to upgrade, the same happens:

I have encountered the problem initially when trying to full-upgrade the
system. There is only one pinning policy (for mplayer), nothing else in
/etc/apt/preferences.
Any hints are appreciated!

Andre
