apt-get status error
I have the debian.scribus.net repository in my sources.list and just
upgraded to the latest release. Somehow the status file got corrupted
and now 'apt-get -s upgrade' always wants to upgrade scribus even though
it is uptodate. Here is the output:
Inst scribus [1.2.4.1.dfsg-1] (1.2.4.1.dfsg-1 Upstream Scribus package repository:testing)
How do I fix it?
Here is the output of 'apt-cache policy scribus':
