Description

Hi,

Please find enclosed a patch to use aptitude instead of apt-get when a specific (env.aptitude 1) option is used.

Why? Because these plugins are not fully compatible with system maintained with aptitude. For example if you place some packages on hold using aptitude, apt-get and these plugins will still consider them upgradable.

Hi,

I've updated the patch to mark hold packages which will not be upgraded. Hold package will have a # in front of their names.

I've also fixed the hold regex, hold value is now set correctly.

Bests,
