Package: apt
Version: 0.7.19+b1
Severity: wishlist
File: /usr/share/man/man5/apt_preferences.5.gz
We read
Several instances of the same version of a package may be available when the sources.list(5) file contains
references to more than one source. In this case apt-get downloads the instance listed earliest in the
sources.list(5) file. The APT preferences file does not affect the choice of instance, only the choice of
version.
All I know is here's my order,
deb http://ftp.tw.debian.org/debian experimental main contrib non-free
deb http://ftp.tw.debian.org/debian unstable main contrib non-free
But that's not enough to change the order of what will be installed:
$ set bless
$ apt-cache policy $@
bless:
Installed: (none)
Candidate: 0.5.2-1.2
Version table:
0.5.2-2 0
1 http://ftp.tw.debian.org experimental/main Packages
0.5.2-1.2 0
500 http://ftp.tw.debian.org unstable/main Packages
One needs to set a variable:
$ apt-cache -o APT::Default-Release=experimental policy $@
bless:
Installed: (none)
Candidate: 0.5.2-2
Version table:
0.5.2-2 0
990 http://ftp.tw.debian.org experimental/main Packages
0.5.2-1.2 0
500 http://ftp.tw.debian.org unstable/main Packages
Therefore that paragraph needs some examples to clarify what it is
talking about.
Also no priority "1" is mentioned on apt_preferences(5).
