Package: apticron Version: 1.1.58 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
When packages are placed on hold; in this case with aptitude, getting the following emails: 1. Subject: No updates for ... Message: No new packages today. 2. Subject: Cron <root@x220> if test -x /usr/sbin/apticron; then /usr/sbin/apticron --cron; else true; fi Message: E: Held packages were changed and -y was used without --allow-change-held-packages. Get email number 1 and right after get email number 2. There are updates available even though email number 1 says there none. When the hold on the packages are removed with aptitude, apticron works as expected.
