Package: apt
Version: 1.7.0~alpha0
File: /usr/bin/apt-mark

Here we see the effects of apt-mark hold do not last for long.

# set openjdk-11-jre-headless
# aptitude search $@
p   openjdk-11-jre-headless - OpenJDK Java runtime, using Hotspot JIT (headless)
# apt-mark hold $@
openjdk-11-jre-headless set on hold.
# aptitude full-upgrade
The following packages will NOT be UPGRADED:
  default-jre{a} (S: default-java-plugin)  default-jre-headless{a} (R:
  openjdk-6-jre-headless)  xserver-xorg-core{a} (R: xserver-xorg)
