Strange Behavior with teTeX Packages

[palme@uni-wuppertal.de (Hubert Palme)]

Hi,

since the last weekend, I have the following problem:

My /etc/apt/preferences shows:

# Time-stamp: <06/03/20 15:51:09 root>
Package: *
Pin: release a=sarge-backports
Pin-Priority: 200

Package: hplip
Pin: release a=sarge-backports
Pin-Priority: 999

Package: hplip-data
Pin: release a=sarge-backports
Pin-Priority: 999

Package: hpijs
Pin: release a=sarge-backports
Pin-Priority: 999

Package: lsb-base
Pin: release a=sarge-backports
Pin-Priority: 999

Package: kdissert
Pin: release a=sarge-backports
Pin-Priority: 999

There is no reference to the teTeX packages. Now, with
"apt-show-versions -u|sort" I get:

tetex-base/sarge-backports upgradeable from 2.0.2c-8sarge1 to 3.0-14bpo1
tetex-doc/sarge-backports upgradeable from 2.0.2c-8sarge1 to 3.0-14bpo1
tetex-extra/sarge-backports upgradeable from 2.0.2c-8sarge1 to 3.0-14bpo1

When I try to upgrade:

# apt-get upgrade
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
The following packages have been kept back:
   jpilot jpilot-backup jpilot-plugins tetex-base tetex-extra
The following packages will be upgraded:
   tetex-doc
1 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 5 not upgraded.
Need to get 50.1MB of archives.
After unpacking 25.6MB of additional disk space will be used.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n]

(The jpilot-Packages are set to "hold", so forget them)

The "versions state" of tetex-doc is:

# apt-show-versions -a -p tetex-doc
tetex-doc       2.0.2c-8sarge1  install ok installed
tetex-doc       2.0.2c-8        stable
No proposed-updates version
tetex-doc       3.0-14bpo1      sarge-backports
tetex-doc/sarge-backports upgradeable from 2.0.2c-8sarge1 to 3.0-14bpo1

I don't really want to upgrade the teTeX packages to the backport
version. So what could be wrong? Is it my fault or ... All the other
packages on the backports server don't want to be upgraded!!

Thanks, HP.
