Thank you for the answer. So this is a bad idea for the tasks I agree with you, I didn't see the things this way. But for the base system (~prequired, ~pimportant and ~pstandard) do you think it's a bad idea too? Why would it be bad idea to have the new packages (which now have one of the 3 priorities above) and old packages (which no longer have one of the 3 priorities) automatically proposed respectively for install or removal on updates?
