Polo: For me, the following command: sudo echo -e "libsane hold" | dpkg --set-selections has succeeded in putting the libsane package in "hold" status, so update-notifier does not bother me any more asking me to upgrade it. I just have to be careful when I update other packages via update-manager that libsane, still appearing in the list, is not marked and so, it is not unintendedly upgraded.
You can check whether libsane is or is not in hold status by the comand dpkg -l libsane The first letter in the last line of the reply should be an "h" if the package is in fact in hold status (an "i" if it is not). -- HP ScanJet 5300C doesn't work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/83587 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
