Package: aptitude
Version: 0.6.3-3.2
Severity: normal
I am not sure when this behaviour changed, but I'd like it at least to be
configurable:
when manually upgrading packages in aptitude that have the "A" automatic
flag using the "+" command, the "A" flag is lost and one needs to use the
"M" command to re-mark the package as automatic.
I'd prefer that using "+" on packages already marked as "A" resulted the
package being marked for upgrade *without* removing the "A" flag as the
"m" command is perfectly capable of being used to remove the "A" flag.
