Note that the files in the /etc/apt/preferences.d directory are parsed
in alphanumeric ascending order and need to obey the following naming
convention: The files have no or "pref" as filename extension and which
only contain alphanumeric, hyphen (-), underscore (_) and period (.)
characters - otherwise they will be silently ignored.
