Package: aptitude
Version: 0.6.8-1
Severity: important
It seems when downgrading packages that have dependency issues aptitude
suggests to remove all my multiarch packages. Below is an example but I
have had this happen with more than workrave.
************
Versions
************
$ aptitude versions workrave
Package workrave:
p 1.9.1-3 stable 500
i 1.9.909+abc941eb70-1 testing,unstable 990
Package workrave-data:
p A 1.9.1-3 stable 500
i A 1.9.909+abc941eb70-1 testing,unstable 990
Package workrave:i386:
p 1.9.909+abc941eb70-1 testing,unstable 990

$ sudo aptitude -t stable install workrave=1.9.1-3
The following packages will be DOWNGRADED:
