Bug#574939: apt_preferences(5): effect of ", " in "Pin: release a=stable, v=3.0" undocumented

[Ansgar Burchardt <ansgar@2008.43-1.org>]

Package: apt
Version: 0.7.25.3
Severity: normal
File: /usr/share/man/man5/apt_preferences.5.gz

Hi,

in the "the Version: line" paragraph of apt_preferences(5) the following
example is given:

  Pin: release a=stable, v=3.0

But the general effect of "," is not explained anywhere.  Does it mean a
logical "and" or something else?

Regards,
Ansgar
