I'll note that I can verify this on intrepid. Instructions: * set up an intrepid system * wait until there is a security update or other update * create /etc/apt/preferences:
Package: base-files Pin: release a=intrepid-updates Pin-Priority. 10 * run update-manager, click on "Check" * package is still offered to be updated If I put the package in "hold" before running update-manager, it correctly lists the package in the possible updates, but "unticked", i.e., it won't be upgraded unless the user explicitly chooses it to be upgraded. I don't seem to be able to find a way to get Synaptic tell me the package is pinned. Perhaps I've done some bad mistake in reproducing this? -- Shows pinned packages as available to update https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/52158 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
