Hi, On 2 of my machines I have mysql-common installed
# aptitude show mysql-common Package: mysql-common State: installed Automatically installed: no Version: 5.1.49-3 Priority: optional Section: database [....] However, now apt-get wants to install an update but aptitude will not. # apt-get upgrade Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done The following packages will be upgraded: mysql-common 1 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded. Need to get 69.6 kB of archives. After this operation, 57.3 kB disk space will be freed. Do you want to continue [Y/n]? n Abort. # aptitude upgrade No packages will be installed, upgraded, or removed. 0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded. Need to get 0 B of archives. After unpacking 0 B will be used. What gives? The same is happening when I use aptitude safe-upgrade, as it should I suppose. ;-) Of course I can simply use apt-get but I also want to understand what is going on.
