Control: tags -1 + moreinfo unreproducible
Hi, 2016-02-25 03:15 Christoph Anton Mitterer:
Control: reopen -1 Hey. I just tried that with: # aptitude --version aptitude 0.7.6 Compiler: g++ 5.3.1 20160220 Compiled against: apt version 5.0.0 NCurses version 6.0 libsigc++ version: 2.6.2 Gtk+ support disabled. Qt support disabled. Current library versions: NCurses version: ncurses 6.0.20160213 cwidget version: 0.5.17 Apt version: 5.0.0 ... and it still seems to happen. I.e. I've upgraded kerberos, of which I've had e.g. krb5-k5tls marked auto, though nothing depended/recommended/etc. it. I've aborted at apt-listchanges, and then the auto flag was cleared.
I just tried to reproduce this with upgrading "less" (some packages recommend it) and "install-info" (some packages depend on it) in curses, with A flag set, but after proceeding to install but selecting "n" in apt-listchanges and then back to aptitude curses, the packages are still marked for upgrade and with A flag. I tried the same with the command line, and with the same results -- no removal of A flag. On the other hand, if I understood correctly, if nothing depends on krb5-k5tls on your system, you shouldn't have it marked as automatically installed. Perhaps aptitude or apt unmark it as autoinstalled if they think that you want it installed while resolving the installation or similar, because otherwise it would be removed from the system. In fact, installing krb5-k5tls in my system and marking it as automatically installed, aptitude attempts to remove it immediately -- which is the right thing to do. Cheers. -- Manuel A.
