I only remember that I run into this once last year or so (can't tell exactly when) on Unstable, where it tried to upgrade all packages to Experimental and Aptitude listed thousands of packages as "Obsolete or locally installed". But a friend of mine ran into this recently on Squeeze LTS in a very misleading way: * Squeeze lists were there * Squeeze-LTS lists were missing * Squeeze-Backports lists were there. This caused upgrades to Squeeze-Backports only for those packages which already had updates from Squeeze-LTS installed and were available in Squeeze-Backports too. It made him unfortunately believe[1], that our LTS release switched Dovecot from 1.2 to 2.0 as it seemed the only change caused by this bug on his system. :-( [1] http://www.deimeke.net/dirk/blog/?url=archives/3505-Migration-abgeschlossen-....html#c19512 (German) P.S.: I wonder if this is related to https://bugs.debian.org/337157 -- if so, that bug hasn't been fixed in APT 0.7.16 as guessed by Eugene in https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=337157#15 Regards, Axel -- ,''`. | Axel Beckert <[email protected]>, http://people.debian.org/~abe/ : :' : | Debian Developer, ftp.ch.debian.org Admin `. `' | 4096R: 2517 B724 C5F6 CA99 5329 6E61 2FF9 CD59 6126 16B5 `- | 1024D: F067 EA27 26B9 C3FC 1486 202E C09E 1D89 9593 0EDE -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
