Bug#328769: libapr0 keeps upgrading "ad infinitum"
I think this bug should be re-assigned to apt, or the amd64 archive. I
had the same bug with libapr0, and then lynx started upgrading ad
infinitum as well.
I fixed it by dropping the pin-priority for stable/updates in
preferences. however, returning the pin-priority to the high value
doesn't bring the behaviour back, so this seems to be unrepeatable for
the moment - does anyone who knows about apt have any ideas?
My sources.list:
deb http://public.planetmirror.com/pub/debian-amd64/debian/ stable main
contrib non-free
deb http://public.planetmirror.com/pub/debian-amd64/debian/ testing main
contrib non-free
deb http://public.planetmirror.com/pub/debian-amd64/debian/ unstable
main contrib non-free
# Security updates
deb http://security.debian.org/ stable/updates main contrib non-free
deb-src http://public.planetmirror.com/pub/debian/ unstable main contrib
non-free

Package: *
Pin: release a=stable/updates
Pin-Priority: 900
Package: *
Pin: release a=stable
Pin-Priority: 800
Package: *
Pin: release a=testing
Pin-Priority: 40

Pin: release a=unstable
Pin-Priority: 30
Package: *
Pin: release o=Debian
Pin-Priority: -1
My preferences (to fix it)
