Package: aptitude
Version: 0.7.2-1
Version: 0.7.3-1
Severity: minor
If I choose to downgrade a package and go into the preview tab with "g",
the packages have either "i A" or "i " in the first field while e.g. to
be upgraded packages have "iu " or "iuA" and to be purged have "ipA" or
"ip ". Shouldn't there be a letter for downgrading, too?
"d" is IIRC already in use for "delete/remove but not purge". So maybe
use "v" (to be interpreted as a downwards arrow) as Manuel suggested on
IRC. Then again, "v" is also used for "virtual" in a column nearby. So
maybe "w" as in "doWngrade" (and looking like two arrows down if you
have a lot of imagination ;-), as suggested by Manuel on IRC, too.
