Package: apt Version: 0.6.46.4-0.1 I have a system with both stable and testing in /e/a/sources.list, plus a higher priority for stable specified in /e/a/preferences. Things seem to have generally worked for quite a while in the expected manner. However, the behavior of "apt-cache --no-all-versions show PACKAGE" does not match the description in the apt-cache(8) man page:
: If --no-all-versions is : specified, only the candidate version will displayed (the one which : would be selected for installation). This option is only applicable : to the show command $ apt-cache policy lsb-base lsb-base: Installed: 3.1-23.1 Candidate: 3.1-23.2etch1 Version table: 3.1-24 0 500 http://http.us.debian.org testing/main Packages 3.1-23.2etch1 0 550 http://http.us.debian.org stable/main Packages *** 3.1-23.1 0 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status $ apt-cache --no-all-versions show lsb-base | grep Version: Version: 3.1-24 That is, "apt-cache policy" picks the right candidate version, but "apt-cache --no-all-versions show" doesn't. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
