Package: apt-listbugs
Version: 0.1.20
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

I manually added:

merkaba:/etc/apt> cat preferences.d/apt-listbugs 
Explaination: Pinned manually
Explaination:   #845785: chromium crashes on certain websites
Package: chromium
Pin: version *
Pin-Priority: -30000

cause Michael downgraded the severity of that bug to "normal" and thus from
what I understand apt-listbug would not protect my system from upgrading to
the newer broken chromium version in unstable.

I do hope that apt-listbugs will automatically remove it once the bug is
fixed, but I also would like a way to manually pin a bug from command line
in order to avoid having to make up an entry like above myself.

I didn“t see a way to do it after looking at the manpage of apt-listbugs
tough.

Thanks,
Martin
