Why bother when a simple pin will do the job: $ cat /etc/apt/preferences.d/no-bad-package Package: bad-package Pin: version * Pin-Priority: -1 Explanation: prevent installation of bad-package # apt-get install bad-package Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Package bad-package is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source E: Package 'bad-package' has no installation candidate (actual package name replaced to protect... never mind) Kind regards, Andrei -- http://wiki.debian.org/FAQsFromDebianUser Offtopic discussions among Debian users and developers: http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/d-community-offtopic http://nuvreauspam.ro/gpg-transition.txt
