How to determine why a package is "held back"?

[stan <stanb@awod.com>]

I've got 2 differnt "testing' machines that should be set up in a very
similar fashion (mine which I tend to test things on first, and my wife's,
which I ry to keep _very_ stable).

Latley when I do apt-gte update ; apt-get dist-upgrade, her machine has
been "holding back" gnome-common.

How can I determine why this is os, and correct it?
