Bug Description

I am on Ubuntu12.04 64bit updated to 8.4.2012.

The update-manager is marking libqwt-dev6.0.0-1ubuntu1 as updatebel even it is already installed in this version.

So I can update it in a endless loop.

It is to point out that there are no installing/update problems beside this.

It is just not recognized as done work.

A look on it with "synaptic" brings the same result.

A update with "apt-get upgrade" has also the same result.

I have had this probem also with previous versions of this package and observe it since the beginning of 2012(anno).

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It may be a problem with this package directly, it may be a problem with apt. I could not decide it.
