I don't know exactly what criteria aptitude is using to sort those updates so I can't really tell you. I'm putting the aptitude developers in copy so that they can reply. Depending on how it's implemented, it might be doable by adjusting the contents of the squeeze-lts Release file. Otherwise it might need a fix in the aptitude codebase. We have a similar problem with unattended-upgrades which will not detect those updates as security updates because the repository label doesn't contain the word security IIRC. Michael, is that something that you wish to fix with a squeeze-lts upload? Or is that something that we should fix by updating the squeeze-lts release file? (Ccing ftpmasters so that all involved parties can voice their opinion) Cheers, -- Raphaël Hertzog ◈ Debian Developer Support Debian LTS: http://www.freexian.com/services/debian-lts.html Learn to master Debian: http://debian-handbook.info/get/ _______________________________________________ Aptitude-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/aptitude-devel
