Bug#216700: apt_preferences.5: should document how priority is chose when multiple entries match
Package: apt
Version: 0.5.14
Severity: normal
I can't find in the manpage the rules used to select a priority,
especially when both a "version" entry and a "release" entry match the
a giver version of a package.
