Package: apt
Version: 0.6.36
Severity: normal
Tags: experimental
Hi,
Pinning seems to be broken with APT 0.6. I'm using GNOME 2.10 from
experimental so I have an /etc/apt/preferences file (included below),
which worked fine with apt-0.5.28.6. However, apt-0.6.36 does not let me
install packages from experimental: "apt-get upgrade -t experimental"
does nothing.
For example:
$ apt-cache policy gnome-applets-data
gnome-applets-data:
Installed: 2.10.1-1
Candidate: 2.10.1-1
Version table:
2.10.1-2 0
1 http://ftp.fi.debian.org project/experimental/main/binary-i386/
Packages
*** 2.10.1-1 0
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
2.8.2-1 0
990 http://ftp.fi.debian.org unstable/main Packages
According to /etc/apt/preferences version 2.10.1-2 should have priority 101,
not 1.
