On squeeze? May I ask why you're still running a release that is nearly EOL? It's highly recommended you upgrade to wheezy as very soon you'll no longer be supported. For that reason, and the others Daniel provided, there's no point in filing a bug. Also, you did not furnish proof that config/apt/preferences is ignored ... > config/apt/preferences: > > Package: cron > Pin: version * > Pin-Priority: -1 > > Package: logrotate > Pin: version * > Pin-Priority: -1 > > Package: rsyslog > Pin: version * > Pin-Priority: -1 > > cron, logrotate and rsyslog still get installed. No, that is not proof. Proof would be some apt-cache policy output at the time those get installed to show that there are no -1 pin priorities for these packages. Pinning something -1 only prevents installation if nothing directly depends on or installs these. For example: hypothetical package 'foo' has Depends: cron and 'foo' is in on of your package lists. cron will still be installed. OR: 'cron' is actually in one of your package lists. Please always include complete output of commands demonstrating the problem when you report problems. Thanks, Ben -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
