The problem persists in 7.10 What is strange is that I have a package pinned in synaptic, but if I press mark all upgrades then that specific package is selected for upgrade.
Anyway, I think that all comes from the fact that there is no single way to pin packages in a ubuntu system (synaptic update_manager apt use different backends). If you agree I would suggest to mark this bug a duplicate of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/synaptic/+bug/42178 and file a bug to ask for use of the apt pinning method for all the applications. -- update manager doesn't honor (eg. synaptic) pinned packages https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/84176 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
