[Bug 67146] Re: synaptic pinning/locking does not work
I'm not sure if this is the same bug, but Pinning still appears broken in Jaunty Synaptic. I downloaded the source for vpnc, recompiled and installed with dpkg. When reloading the package index vpnc then appears in the list of updateable packages. I then pinned the package in synaptic. It appears in the status listing as 'Pinned'. If I reload then it no longer appears in the upgradeable list. So far so good. But if I 'Mark all Upgrades' although the pinned package is not marked when I click on 'Apply' the pinned package is included in the list of packages to be upgraded. So it appears to be pinned and the /var/lib/synaptic/preferences file contains an entry, but nonetheless synaptic is still marking it for update. -- synaptic pinning/locking does not work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/67146 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 67146] Re: synaptic pinning/locking does not work
Pretty weird. I was able to lock a banshee package as soon as they published 1.0 version (June 2008?), but today (in Jaunty) I want to lock wpasupplicant and synaptic cannot do this. @RandyNose: I found this link: http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-apt-get.en.html#s-pin which appears to work. I think I successfully locked that package, as it isn't shown in update-manager, but synaptic doesn't mark it as locked. It just says that the newest version is currently installed (which is not true, of course). This is my /etc/apt/preferences file: Package: wpasupplicant Pin: version 0.6.4-2 Pin-Priority: 1001 -- synaptic pinning/locking does not work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/67146 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Huh. It's now 2009, and I have Jaunty, and... I'm not able to lock/pin a file that I don't want updated, as I applied a patch to it.

I've installed the version from edgy-proposed. Now locking works for me. A small issue: invoking Package/Lock from some search results it resets the search criteria (or the window), i'd restart the search with selecting [search] and [ok] again.

I have a similar problem. If a version shows as locked in Synaptic, if you try to remove the locked check mark, the screen refreshes, but the locked package remains locked.

[Bug 67146] Re: synaptic pinning/locking does not work
I have been using the version from edgy-proposed for a while now. Locking works fine for me with this version. However, Force Version ... does not work. I don't know if this is the same bug. Force version ... behaves in the same way that Lock Version used to behave. That is, after selecting Force Version from the menu and selecting the desired version in the dialog box, Synaptic churns away and refreshes its list, but in the end nothing is marked. -- synaptic pinning/locking does not work https://launchpad.net/bugs/67146 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
