Bug#1112193: closed by Julian Andres Klode <jak@debian.org> (Re: Bug#1112193: Apt manual install overridden during remove)



Hhi,

that's not even the point: The bug is that installing a another package should not override the manual mark of a previously installed with auto...

I haven't checked if one can mark it as essential first, but that shouldn't be necessary. Anyhow, if you're still insisting that this is expected behaviour then it certainly is. But the specification should be considered questionable or counterintuitive at best...


Cheers,

Christian

How is one supposed to have a working system that way?
apt offers a solution for the request you are making. You have to
read and understand the solution before accepting it.

No solution is offered and having this as default (since there is no interactive environment) should considered to be a bug.

You cannot pass "-y" (= accept) and then complain that the solution is not acceptable.
