Bug#282918: apt-preferences(5), wrong example?
Package: apt
Version: 0.5.27
Severity: minor
Hi,
apt_preferences(5) says:
The following record assigns a high priority to all package versions
belonging to any release whose Archive name is "stable" and whose
release Version number is "3.0".
Package: *
Pin: release a=unstable, v=3.0
Pin-Priority: 50
Doesn't the example code have the wrong a= field and a too low
priority? Frankly, this looks like a cut&paste error, or I have
misunderstood how pinning works.
Greetings
Marc
