Hi,

not sure this is a bug but here goes. Feel free to close or reassign.

This occurred on a pure etch machine.
I just did a normal update/upgrade cycle,
then a dist-upgrade,
and a couple of packages got "stuck"... see the dialogue below.

Is this an apt problem or a bug/incompat in the individual packages?
Or just normal behaviour for apt in some circumstances? I can't recall
having seen this happen before.

I am accessing packages through an apt-proxy running local to the machine.
Apt was just upgraded; unixodbc was shown as being kept back before apt
got (dist-)upgraded, and was still being kept back after that change.
At the time of the dialogue below, the verison installed was
ii  apt            0.6.46.2       Advanced front-end for dpkg
And apt-proxy was
ii  apt-proxy      1.9.35         Debian archive proxy and partial mirror buil

Hi Vince,

Sorry, I don't know why unixodbc wasn't upgraded for you in a dist-upgrade
run.  Maybe an apt configuration setting, a package on hold somewhere, or a
bug in apt?  I'm confident that whatever this was, it was not a bug in
unixodbc; and no one else has reported this behavior; so I think this bug
should simply be closed since even if there were anything to fix here it
won't be fixed in etch at this point and doesn't matter for lenny.

Cheers,
