To try and answer my own question, these packages are in oldlibs in Ubuntu 13.10 and -- as far as I can tell -- are not transitional packages.
Main: 1. libdb4.8 2. libpangox-1.0-0 3. python-gobject-2 4. python-gobject-2-dev Universe: 5. i965-va-driver 6. kdegames-mahjongg-data 7. libdb1-compat 8. myspell-tools So of the 105 packages in oldlibs, it seems that 97 of them are transitional packages and 8 of them are not. Is there a better Section those eight could be moved to? Or can they be excluded some other way? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1166230 Title: Updater lists many transitional dummy packages To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+bug/1166230/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
