Hey, I just upgraded a system that had ifupdown from backports.org on it. Following cleanup and dpkg --audit etc., I ran
root@cymbaline:/etc/apt/sources.list.d# apt-get upgrade
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Calculating upgrade... Done
The following packages will be REMOVED:
ifupdown libasprintf0c2 libperl4-corelibs-perl libuuid-perl python-bson
python-pymongo
and indeed, it then went on to remove ifupdown.
What am I not understanding right here? Shouldn't "apt-get upgrade"
NEVER EVER EVER EVER remove something?
Can I find out in hindsight (can't reproduce this) what might have
happened?
Thanks,
