Bug#87442: The ability to downgrade packages to the default release would be nice



Package: apt
Version: 0.5.0
Severity: wishlist

  I was just testing some packages from experimental and wondered whether it
would be possible to use the Super Cow Powers of the new apt to return to
unstable without manual labor :)  Specifying the versions on a per-package
basis worked, but it would be nice if there were a way (similar to -t) to
force all packages listed on the command-line to be from a particular release.

   Thanks,
  Daniel
