A workaround for me appears to be to add experimental to the @official_suites array: my @official_suites = qw(oldstable stable proposed-updates testing unstable experimental); After doing that and running apt-show-versions, the issue seems to have gone away, hmmmm! Or maybe the daily cron run happened. I wonder if this is because there is no apt hook to update the cache and so the cache gets out of sync with apt stuff? Perhaps apt-show-versions should add a file in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/ that would tell apt to run apt-show-versions -i from the APT::Update::Post-Invoke or APT::Update::Post-Invoke-Success hook. Or maybe apt-show-versions shouldn't have its own cache? -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise
