By making experimental disappear, they leave the bug on everybody's systems.
OK, by the way is there any way to detect other such cases?
file:///usr/share/doc/aptitude/html/en/ch02s04s05.html says
|?obsolete |~o |Match installed packages that cannot be downloaded. |
# apt-cache policy dash
dash:
Installed: 0.5.6.1-1~exp0
Candidate: 0.5.6.1-1~exp0
Version table:
*** 0.5.6.1-1~exp0 0
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
0.5.5.1-7.4 0
500 http://ftp.tw.debian.org/debian/ unstable/main i386 Packages
But
# aptitude search ~o
# aptitude seach ~o~i
don't show it,
because some version is still downloadable,
but not the current version,
Wait, the only cure is to run
$ apt-show-versions |grep 'newer than version in archive'
dash 0.5.6.1-1~exp0 newer than version in archive
every night to detect such things.
No help from aptitude full-upgrade which could conceivably warn of such
situations.
