Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: apt-show-versions

On my intrepid system, which has intrepid-updates in its
/etc/apt/sources.list:

## Major bug fix updates produced after the final release of the
## distribution.
deb http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ intrepid-updates main restricted
deb-src http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ intrepid-updates main restricted

some packages from intrepid-updates are reported as newer than version
in archive:

$ apt-show-versions |grep newer
gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly 0.10.9-1ubuntu0.1 newer than version in archive
language-pack-en 1:8.10+20081107 newer than version in archive
language-pack-en-base 1:8.10+20081107 newer than version in archive
language-pack-gnome-en 1:8.10+20081107 newer than version in archive
language-pack-gnome-en-base 1:8.10+20081107 newer than version in archive
libpulsecore5 0.9.10-2ubuntu9.1 newer than version in archive
libv4l-0 0.5.6-1~intrepid1 newer than version in archive
ruby1.8-elisp 1.8.7.72-1ubuntu0.1 newer than version in archive

If I check one of these packages by looking at packages.ubuntu.com, I
see that the version listed for intrepid-updates is the same as the one
I have installed.
