If you disable a repository, its packages will appear as if they were
locally installed (/var/lib/dpkg/status).
Thanks, that's good to know. I did disable a repo I'd used for
backports, but replaced with another (I was not being able to connect
reliably to the first one).
Backports may be related too, but your sudo example is from wheezy
security, see https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=sudo
I'm considering going back to apt, even though most of the advice I've
read on apt vs aptitude leans in favor of the latter. After this
experience, I've lost trust in aptitude.
Probably old advice, apt is the most recommended nowadays.
