Package: apt
Version: 0.3.19
We need the ability to do automatic upgrades over our network from an
internal repositry. However Apt seems to want to install packages that are
up-to-date. We've tested this with the testing version of Apt as well.
Example -
lawnmower:/home/adi/tftproot/ppxelinux.cfg# apt-get upgrade -u
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
The following packages will be upgraded
bash bsdutils debianutils diff dpkg elvis-tiny fileutils findutils g++
gawk grep gzip hostname login mawk mount perl-5.005-base sed shellutils
sysvinit tar textutils update util-linux
24 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Need to get 0B/6622kB of archives. After unpacking 0B will be used.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n] n
If I continue with the upgrade, all packages get replaced
sucessfully. Then if I issue the command again, it still wants to upgrade
them. This behavior is very odd - I suspected it was something to do with
the Packages file I am using in my archive, but comparing the entries
against those in our local Debian mirror doesn't show anything odd.
The Packages file in my repository:

You need to change the version number when you recompile a package.
