Bug#141495: apt: please implement tracking of releases via Default-Release

["Christian 'mezzomix' Beyerlein" <christian@beyerlein.de>]

Package: apt
Version: 0.5.4
Severity: minor

Hi,

if i see it right it's impossible to track the upcoming release "woody"
with apt with the Default-Release option. it just takes "stable"
"testing" or "unstable" but when woody is released the user has to
switch this setting from "testing" to "stable" at the right time..

it would be very nice if the user could choose to track releases instead
of release-states.
