Re: APT broken ?
Hi,
When I put a package on hold, it has the dependencies
satisfied (presumably). I do not wan the package to be
upgraded until I say so. I also do not want the package to break, or
other packages depending on it to break. If that means packages are
held back, so be it.
I no case should the packaging system pretend that the
dependencies are satisfied when they are not, because they may cause
my package to break. I object strongly to the packaging system
deluding itself and rendering my package unuseable.

who is grateful that holding back vm was all that was needed not
to have apt upgrade emacs packages and break vm.
