Sometimes you want to leave a package at the same version, not to have subsequent problems with dependencies

or malfunction. The distributions that use APT have the opportunity to put these packages on hold, then

reinstall them later. All this avoids the annoying occurrence of 'notice of continuous update. A

the possibility may be that offered by wajig, a command line program that relies on dpkg and Apt

# Apt-get install wajig

Once the program is installed, you can maintain a package, so it is ignored by Apt,

this:

# wajig hold nome_pacchetto
wajig hold nome_pacchetto


Quando si vuole sbloccare il pacchetto:

# wajig unhold nome_pacchetto

Per visualizzare l'elenco dei pacchetti in attesa:

# Wajig list-hold
