Package: apticron
Version: 1.1.12
Severity: wishlist


It would be helpful if apticron would also report on packages which
apt-get dist-upgrade reports as being kept back.  For example, in
today's testing update, base-config somehow ended up in testing despite
a conflict with testing's version of tasksel (it requires the version in
stable), so it's automatically held back.  It would be nice to see this
in the apticron report.

Apticron was designed to send notifications about impending apt upgrades, 
and informing upgrades that can not be done yet isn't really the point. 
This situation will never occur in urgent upgrades, such as security
updates, since all the dependencies must be provided for installation.
