Title:
synaptic "Lock Version" not heeded in partial upgrade.
Status in python-apt package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Status in update-manager package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Binary package hint: update-manager
Don't think this is related to bug #13408, because I only experience
this on partial upgrades.
Steps:
1) Lock a PPA version of a package (Frescobaldi) in synaptic, so that it does
not install the Ubuntu repository version. (FYI, the repo version has different
dependencies that I don't want).
2) On normal updates, the update-manager will now ignore that package.
3) If some other package triggers a partial upgrade, update-manager will try
to upgrade frescobaldi along with its dependencies, forcing me to uninstall it,
do the partial upgrade, force the version I want to reinstall, and then lock it
back every time there's a partial upgrade.
Partial upgrades should listen to the version lock as well, in my
opinion.
I'm on Karmic, with update-manager version 1:0.124.8
