Bug#622719: aptitude forgets automatically installed state on package upgrade selection

2011-05-14 Thread Daniel Burrows
  This changed in revision 2085.1.1 of apt.  Fer crying out loud, if I
had the time I'd just ditch their handling of the auto flag and do it
myself.  What's especially frustrating is that they tried to
accommodate aptitude, but they didn't understand what they were doing.
Guess it's really my fault for not keeping up on this stuff.

  I guess that as a workaround (ew) I can save the auto flag before I
call MarkInstall and restore it afterwards.

  Odd, nothing changed on my end.  Probably the apt guys changed their
behavior in some incompatible way.

Bug#622719: aptitude forgets automatically installed state on package upgrade selection

2011-04-14 Thread Gabor Nagy
Package: aptitude
Version: 0.6.3-3.2
Severity: normal


When in the list of upgradable packages I select a package or a package group
for upgrade, aptitude forgets that the package (or all automatically installed
packages in the group) was automatically installed

I preferred the old behaviour when the package was upgraded, and aptitude kept
the automatically installed flag.
