Comment 2 for bug 1365953

Hello Gwendal

Apparemment je me suis mal exprimé; le bug est que synaptic propose de
supprimer des paquets qui sont en fait à mettre à jour. Ces paquets sont
justement ceux marqués en niveau 4 et 5 par mintupdate.

Le problème est donc qu'il sont en statut "mise à jour" dans synaptic, mais
que les options réellement possibles (clic droit) sont "suppression" et
"suppression complète".

Donc en voulant mettre un système à jour, on va par erreur supprimer ces
paquets.

C'est ça, le bug.
