Bug#33394: reopen 33394
reopen 33394
severity 33394 wishlist
thanks
OK, let's keep this open as a wishlist item.
The wish here is that --forget-old-unavail make dpkg
forget about packages that are "hold ok not-installed"
as well as about those that are "purge ok not-installed",
since some people still have records of never-installed
packages with that status:
> polya:~ $ grep-status -F Status "hold ok not-installed" -s Package |
wc -l
1942
On my system, originally installed in the months before potato
was released, I get
0
from the same command.
Cheers
