Package: aptitude
Version: 0.6.1.5-1
Severity: normal
I have the xserver held to the version in testing, and every time I run
aptitude safe-upgrade, aptitude switches between console-setup and
console-setup-mini. If one is installed, it uninstalls that one and
installs the other one, no matter which is installed. This happens with
safe-upgrade with no prompted resolution, so there doesn't seem to be
any way of stopping this.
I even tried pinning console-setup-mini to -1:
console-setup-mini:
Installed: (none)
Candidate: (none)
Package pin: 1.51
Version table:
1.51 -1
500 http://exodus.stanford.edu sid/main Packages
1.50 -1
500 http://exodus.stanford.edu testing/main Packages
and it *still* does this:
The following NEW packages will be installed:
console-setup-mini{a}
The following packages will be REMOVED:
console-setup{u} console-terminus{u}
The following packages will be upgraded:
aspell cpp-4.4 docbook-xsl g++-4.4 gcc-4.4 gcc-4.4-base gnubg gnubg-data
kstart libaspell15 libgcc1 libgfortran3 libgomp1 libremctl1 libstdc++6
libstdc++6-4.4-dev python python-dev python-minimal remctl-client
I let it proceed, and then immediately ran aptitude upgrade again and got:
The following NEW packages will be installed:
console-setup{a} console-terminus{a}
The following packages will be REMOVED:
console-setup-mini{u}
I'm sure that something about holding the xserver packages is doing this.
Here's the corresponding aptitude dist-upgrade output:
