oh, ok. As you say i think it's not a bug. But maybe a functionality apt should
have. i mean, i need to know if there is a new version of the programs i have
compiled myself. well, i don't really 'need' it, but since update manager lets
you know when a new version of your installed programs has been released, it's
a good idea that it does the same for every package you may have installed with
dpkg.
i am not a programmer but i think something like 'Check only version number'
may work.
Then, someone could download source code, compile, make and install the
debian package of, say, version 1.0.0, without bothering at 'force version' for
that package, not having the upgrade manager asking him to upgrade that package
that doesn't need upgrade, and asking only when there is actually a new version
number. Amazing that apt let you choose between an stable and unstable
versions, but forget the packages you want to compile yourself.
Probably i have mistaken putting that like a bug, but i don't know where i
can ask for such functionality.
