Package: apt
Version: 0.8.3
Severity: wishlist
Hi,
for backports.debian.org we use the NotAutomatic Flag to prevent users
from installing every backport. Unfortunatly that has the drawback of
preventing updates from installed backports. Even if our docs trys to
force users of pinning backports to 100 several don't read the docs or
don't understand it.
It would be great if apt would support a Flag like:
NotAutomaticButUpdates or so which pins a remote repo to 100. If
needed I can provide a patch but my C++ isn't so fluid, so I would
prefer if I don't have to :).
For backward compability it would be nice NotAutomatic and
NotAutomaticButUpdates would both work.
Also it would be great if we could get the change into Squeeze :).
Thanks in advance
Alex
