Interestingly, it looks to me like aptitude places packages in this group when you just haven't requested any action on them. I think it's based on the "auto" flag, which is totally wrong. I would just ignore the "automatically held" group and the supposed "explanations" for now. Daniel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
