[Bug 1268716] Re: Pinning repositories not being used properly in apt-get dist-upgrade -s

2014-01-14 Thread Julian Andres Klode
Not a bug. It's clearly documented in one of the manpages that the order
of sources.list entries determine the repository if the same version is
available from multiple repositories.

** Changed in: apt (Ubuntu)
   Status: New = Invalid

[Bug 1268716] Re: Pinning repositories not being used properly in apt-get dist-upgrade -s

2014-01-14 Thread Dan Schaefer
Here is the excerpt from the sources.list manpage:
It is important to list sources in order of preference, with the most 
preferred source listed first. Typically this will result in sorting by speed 
from fastest to slowest (CD-ROM followed by hosts on a local network, followed 
by distant Internet hosts, for example).

My reasoning for the bug is a little different than what is described
in the manpage. However, I still feel that a system configured with
repository Pinning should be consistent with the output of apt-cache
policy and apt-get and take the Pinning into consideration.
