Hi all, I've somehow managed to create a package in my local apt repository that insists on continually re-installing itself on apt-get upgrade. The package is the unstable version of ssmtp (2.60.1), that was downloaded and built on a woody system using apt-get -t unstable source ssmtp, followed by a `fakeroot debian/rules binary'. The package itself installs cleanly on woody and works fine. However, every time I apt-get upgrade, it re-installs, regardless of if it's been updated in the private apt source. My /etc/apt/preferences file is: Package: * Pin: release a=woody Pin-Priority: 500 Package: * Pin: release a=unstable Pin-Priority: 100 My repository is generated using dpkg-scanpackages dists/woody/main/binary-i386 /dev/null \ | gzip > dists/woody/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz The systems that this occurs on are all up to date woody. Is there something obvious that I'm missing about setting up a repository or building a deb? M
