It would be awesome if you could help me figure this out!

I have put packages here:

deb https://people.debian.org/~terceiro/tmp/rails-upgrade-wheezy-jessie/ ./

That repo is signed with my key in the Debian keyring.

I re-tested here and got the same results as before: aptitude will
figure out the upgrade just fine, but apt-get won't. The log below was
taken on a clean wheezy chroot where I had just installed rails (and
removed man-db to workaround #768599 which is unrelated). Note this bit
in the apt-get dist-upgrade call:

  The following packages have been kept back:
    rails

If I run apt-get dist-upgrade twice in a row, the system will be
eventually in the expected state (rails itself will be upgraded only
during the second call), but that's obviously broken.

# apt-get dist-upgrade
