adept does not have the ability to set packages to hold state. If i know that I do not want a particular package to be updated ever, the ability to set its status to hold is not available through adept, needs to be done through command line.

Unfortunately, Adept has been unmaintained by its original authors for several years, and nobody has stepped up to continue its development. (Though the Muon Suite is arguably its spiritual successor) As such, Adept has been removed from releases of Kubuntu from 12.10 onwards, and no additional improvements will be made to the software.

We thank you for reporting this bug all the same, and apologize for taking so long to respond to it.
