Or in short: A package version has multiply pin-settings: - a version specific one (e.g. 5.8*) - one for each origin/release/distribution (e.g. sid or "") And this is btw what i expect with the given pin-file, but your mileage may vary, of course. (Or to rephrase it: how to get the same behavior in cupt?) I would therefore reassign the bug (again) to cupt and proceed with improving the manpage in #557637 instead, but i don't want to play bug-ping-pong. So what do you think Eugene V. Lyubimkin?
