Package: apt Version: 0.8.3 Severity: wishlist Hi,
for backports.debian.org we use the NotAutomatic Flag to prevent users from installing every backport. Unfortunatly that has the drawback of preventing updates from installed backports. Even if our docs trys to force users of pinning backports to 100 several don't read the docs or don't understand it. It would be great if apt would support a Flag like: NotAutomaticButUpdates or so which pins a remote repo to 100. If needed I can provide a patch but my C++ isn't so fluid, so I would prefer if I don't have to :). For backward compability it would be nice NotAutomatic and NotAutomaticButUpdates would both work. Also it would be great if we could get the change into Squeeze :). Thanks in advance Alex P.S. feel free to coordinate with the aptitude the maintainers, reassagin the bug or whatever you think is useful. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
