Bug#783343: apt_preferences(5) says "Pin: release n=experimental" but it should be a=experimental
Package: apt
Version: 1.0.9.7
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
Hi,
the man page apt_preferences(5) suggests that to pin a package from
experimental one should write:
Pin: release n=experimental
But this is incorrect and it should instead say:
Pin: release a=experimental
Patch attached.
cheers, josch
