[Bug 744879] Re: apt-get dist-upgrade is overwriting compiled packages

[Indra Ginanjar]

I had quite similar issue with my custom build squid3 (apt-get source).
If i'm using apt-get upgrade, my squid3 will be overwritten by the one from repo.

After reading your comment, i understand it, so i've lock the version with synaptic by using
Package - Lock Version

Still i have a question, how to do that in command line?

Title:
  apt-get dist-upgrade is overwriting compiled packages

Status in “apt” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: apt

  I have compiled Firefox with apt-get source firefox --build. After
  this I installed the created .deb package I made an apt-get dist-
  upgrade. apt said that there is a newer package of firefox but the
  packages has the same name. apt shouldn't overwrite compiled packages
  if both are the same version. I'm using Ubuntu 11.04 dev with apt
  0.8.13ubuntu2.
