Yes, it sets up the pinning in /eta/apt/preferences and has a cronjob to remove the pinnings once an RC bug is closed. So immediately it aborts the installation run (which is a bit annoying) but that's only the first time you decide to not install $package because of $bug. After that you just won't see $package/$version until the $bug is fixed. Cheers, gregor -- .''`.
