Hi,

No, this has nothing to do with pinning at all.

This is a known issue with aptitude. Have a look at the function
is_security() in src/generic/apt/apt.cc: aptitude only regards as
security update if the repository is from security.debian.org or
security.*.debian.org, at least in Debian.

So I assume that Ubuntu patches those lines towards
security.ubuntu.com as used in his German sources.list.

But his "central" sources.list doesn't have security.ubuntu.com
anywhere. He uses e.g. "deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu
trusty-security main restricted" there. And hence it's not recognised.

I thought there was an upstream (Debian) bug report about that (as I
am aware of the issue :-), but I couldn't find it on a first glance.

Will file one and link it here.

  Regards, Axel (with his aptitude hat on)
