Package: apt
Version: 0.3.19
Severity: normal
Sometimes I use to copy someone else's woody packages to my
/var/cache/apt/archives/ folder to do a
'apt-get -m --no-download dist-upgrade'.
This time I wanted to upgrade my KDE2 packages, too, but hey are on hold.
So I tried 'apt-get -m --no-download --ignore-hold dist-upgrade' but it
didn't update any package. After changing KDE's hold status to install in
dselect everything worked as expected.
See log below, especially the descreption which packages will be upgraded.

Dear Maintainer
After Some testing this bug has a weird behavior
it chooses to ignore two held package but not update all held package
but when use apt instead of apt-get update held packages
i am not sure but i think that's apt is frontend to apt-get iam not sure if
apt implement more flags or something maybe this is misunderstanding from
me i tried with dist-upgrade and it worked and also removed some packages
which isn't happened in apt i think apt just implemented some flags
underlying and this was miss understanding from me i will close this bug
according to this new information and return it into archive
Thank you
Happy New Year
