I found aptitude does respect these lines in /etc/apt/preferences - Package: * Pin: release a=experimental Pin-Priority: 100 However downgrading remains impossible
Thanks for this report. The fix was commited for VCS and will be present in the next release, marking as +pending. Cheers. -- Manuel A.
