Hi Florian, it's determined in the repo config, and apt acquires this in formation from the Release files. In particular, if the following fields are present in the Release file of a suite: NotAutomatic: yes ButAutomaticUpgrades: yes then apt will assign to the corresponding suite a lower priority (the default is 100). NotAutomatic prevents the suite from shadowing packages in other suites with higher priority (e.g., ascii is by default at 500), while ButAutomaticUpgrades will allow upgrades to already-installed packages from the suite to be pulled-in if necessary. The only way to change the priority of a suite in your local installation is via a pin.
