Package: aptitude
Version: 0.4.6.1-1.1
Severity: normal

I have a private apt repository which is pinned to -1 per default:

Package: *
Pin: origin jorrit.de
Pin-Priority: -1

I then select individual packages from that repository on individual
machines:

Package: gaia
Pin: origin jorrit.de
Pin-Priority: 500

That particular package was dropped from my repository long ago, but
today appeared in Debian/testing (main).  Aptitude correctly listed it
as a new package, but incorrectly without any available version:

--\ New Packages
  --\ x11 - The X window system and related software
    --\ main - The main Debian archive
p     gaia                                                               <none>    <none>

This usually only happens for packages which have all versions known
to aptitude pinned to -1.  However, the version from testing is not
pinned to -1, as apt-cache shows:

joe@jupiter:~$ LANG=C apt-cache policy gaia
gaia:
  Installed: (none)
  Candidate: (none)
  Package pin: (not found)
  Version table:
     0.1.2-4 500
        500 http://ftp.de.debian.org lenny/main Packages

The complete apt-preferences file is attached.

Thanks,
Jö.

Hi,

this looks like an (older) duplicate of #512318.
The problem seems to be that you pinned the package to a specific
version which doesn't exist (anymore), so APT didn't find a candidate.

I am therefore closing this bug now, feel free to reopen if you disagree.
