Bug#502393: /etc/apt/preferences not read?
Package: apt
Version: 0.7.14+b1
Severity: normal
Sorry, I am not sure if this is a bug or a PEBKAC. I do not want to use
gpsdrive from the repository at gpsdrive.de but I want to use opensteetmap-josm
from there.
[10:16:12][niehaus@crystalline:~]$ apt-cache policy gpsdrive

For some reason the priority is not set according to what I intended. What
is wrong? apt or me?
Thanks :-)
Sebastian
