Only for APT.

I discovered that while upgrading systems from lenny…
using dselect for cleaning up the system *beforehand*
but still having PostgreSQL 8.3 on it, I was surprised
it wanted to pull 8.4 from lenny-backports.

Who knows what else tools are out there (at least cupt,
never tried it though, and aptitude, which has a history
of ignoring the other tools’ states such as hold states).
