Indeed, as supported by apt since 1.0.7 (#758153) and dpkg since 1.17.11. > It is wrong Not really, but the lack of support in (soon to be old)stable makes it annoying. > This bug is present for one week. Can you correct it quickly? The reason > is that apt-get complain about it: There are at least three other options I can think of: - not using an experimental repository in a stable environment; - using a more recent apt on machine where an experimental repository is needed; - make apt (or apticron) ignore such error and get this change accepted in the next stable update. The third possibility may make sense in the near future, so we can start benefiting of this feature early in Strech development, without people using Wheezy being bored by the same kind of error messages if they have an unstable or testing repository in their sources.list > I agree that, per se, this bug is a very little bug for php-monolog Indeed, keeping it open if you wish to reassign it to apt. (“bts reopen 758153 , reassign 774815 apt , forcemerge 758153 774815 , \ affects 758153 php-monolog” could be another option.) Regards David
