More of a wish than a bug, it should be possible to inhibit the
download/upgrade of individual packages. For example, I have vim 5.0-0.2 from
Hamm installed. When I run 'apt-get upgrade', it pulls the unstable packages
from my local mirror, including a newer package of vim. Unfortunately, at the
time of writing, the vim package is missing alot of functionality. I would
like to have a 'Dont-upgrade' section or something, where I can place this an
any other packages I don't want upgraded.
