A workaround is to edit /var/lib/dpkg/status and bump the installed version number. For instance for vmware-player, I edited to: Version: 1:2.0.2-1~ppa5.0.1
Cedric, just move to something higher than that next version, please ;-) And thanks a lot for the packaging. Still it would be nice to have this bug fixed... -- apt reinstalls same package from '~ppa1' again and again https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/152317 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
