Package: apt Version: 0.5.4 Severity: normal If I insert somethink like Package: binutils Pin: version 2.12.90.0.15-1 Pin-Priority: -1
or Package: binutils Pin: version 2.12.90.0.15* Pin-Priority: -1 to /etc/apt/preferences, it will be ignored. So there is no way to knock out a buggy newer version. Only the following works: Package: binutils Pin: version 2.12.90.0.14-1 -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable Architecture: i386 Kernel: Linux baloo 2.4.19 #1 Mon Aug 5 13:46:21 CEST 2002 i686 Locale: LANG=de_DE, LC_CTYPE=de_DE Versions of packages apt depends on: ii libc6 2.2.5-12 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2 1:2.95.4-11 The GNU stdc++ library -- no debconf information
