Public bug reported: There is a problem with the current pidgin-plugin-pack version, so I had to manually build it from sources. After installing it, the update manager says that there is an update for that package, which I don't want to install. I open Synaptic, select the package and "package->lock version". It is marked as locked as expected. The update manager keeps on notificating that there are updates available for that package. I run "aptitude hold pidgin-plugin-pack" but the update manager keeps on notificating available updates. I expect the update manager to stop notifying updates for that package.
I suppose it doesn't depend on the package being installed, but I didn't check it. No related info found in ubuntu forums. The version I manually installed has the same numbers as the one in the repository (2.2.0-1). I'm running Ubuntu 8.10, synaptic 0.62.1ubuntu10 and aptitude 0.4.11.3-1ubuntu3. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Synaptic lock version not working https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/313614 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
