Bug#155568: apt: A Pin less than 100 do not work in /etc/apt/preferences



Package: apt
Version: 0.5.4
Severity: normal

If I insert somethink like
Package: binutils
Pin: version 2.12.90.0.15-1
Pin-Priority: -1

or
Package: binutils
Pin: version 2.12.90.0.15*
Pin-Priority: -1

to /etc/apt/preferences, it will be ignored. So there is no way to knock
out a buggy newer version. Only the following works:
Package: binutils
Pin: version 2.12.90.0.14-1

Debian Release: testing/unstable
Architecture: i386
