2016-05-04 Thread Manuel A. Fernandez Montecelo
OT A above. Or say that the "+" is the default action and optional. I'm saying that you say what happens when "+" is added, but don't say if that does or doesn't happen when it is not added. You're reading the documentation phrase by phrase rather than on the whole, as with many other bug reports. that way it doesn't work. Cheers. -- Manuel A. Fernandez Montecelo

E.g. with #721426, if you upgrade pkgA today, then don't use aptitude for a few days, then do "aptitude update" and "aptitude", if there was another update to pkgA in the meantime, pkgA will be automatically marked for upgrade -- because it didn't have time to register that the upgrade had already happened in previous sessions, and so to remove it from pending actions.
