--- Begin Message ---Package: aptitude Version: 0.6.3-3.2 Severity: normal I am not sure when this behaviour changed, but I'd like it at least to be configurable: when manually upgrading packages in aptitude that have the "A" automatic flag using the "+" command, the "A" flag is lost and one needs to use the "M" command to re-mark the package as automatic. I'd prefer that using "+" on packages already marked as "A" resulted the package being marked for upgrade *without* removing the "A" flag as the "m" command is perfectly capable of being used to remove the "A" flag. -- Package-specific info: aptitude 0.6.3 compiled at Oct 18 2010 22:11:25 Compiler: g++ 4.4.5 Compiled against: apt version 4.10.1 NCurses version 5.7 libsigc++ version: 2.2.4.2 Ept support enabled.

--- Begin Message ---Version: 0.6.4-1 There are several different bugs in this report. The main issue reported is fixed and others that are still open are tracked elsewhere. Closing this report with pointers to related. * Upgrading packages clears all of auto-installed. Message: #5, #27, #37, #126, #136 Last report: 0.6.3-4 Fixed: 0.6.4-1 This was fixed once and reappeared with apt 0.8.11.2. A few days later apt 0.8.11.5 tried to fix it failed to do so completely. Starting with aptitude 0.6.4-1 the auto-installed status of a package is saved and restored for each MarkInstall action by aptitude, effectively resolving the issue. Not the best solution, but works. See <http://bugs.debian.org/622719>. <http://bugs.debian.org/613775> would solve this better. * --schedule-only does not mark packages as auto-installed. Message: #32, #72 Last report: 0.4.6.1-1 Fixed: 0.4.7-1 See <http://bugs.debian.org/435079>. * Conflict resolver clears some (not all) auto-installed. Message: #106 Can happen during upgrades, though also other actions. The cause is distinct (the problem resolver clears the auto- installed status when applying it's solution) and only some packages are affected. It is not clear whether this behaviour is incorrect in all cases. Some actions may actually require the clearing of auto-installed on some packages. Needs more investigation; see <http://bugs.debian.org/638049>. * Installing a held package clears auto-installed status. Message: #123 Verified to be fixed in current versions, most likely by the fix for #622719. * Upgrade, then abort at apt-listbugs prompt, clears auto-installed Message: #62 Verified to be fixed in current versions. * Upgrade + removal, then abort at apt-listbugs prompt, clears auto-installed Message: #141 Still seems to occur. I have filed this case as a new report which needs further investigation. See <http://bugs.debian.org/686573>.
