Control: tags -1 + pending
Hi, 2007-12-25 20:40 xsdg:
Package: aptitude Version: 0.4.10-1+b1 Severity: wishlist Currently, it seems that there is no way to determine which repository provides a certain package. Thus, if I want to find out if a specific package comes from unstable or from experimental, I need to look at `apt-cache policy <pkg>` rather than being able to check via aptitude's UI. Additionally (though I haven't actually checked), it seems that if two repositories provide a certain package with identical version numbers, that it may not be possible to tell which package comes from which repository. (An example where this might occur is that I currently have Corsac's personal XFCE repository in my sources.list. He might tweak a package from there, and then upload to unstable without removing that package from his repository. I would like to be able to install the version from unstable rather than the version from his repository.)
This is implemented now, will be released soon, so marking as +pending. Cheers. -- Manuel A. Fernandez Montecelo <manuel.montez...@gmail.com>
