Hi David,

Thanks for the additional information. It is because the package is pinned in synaptic, and apt and synaptic use different pinning files.
If you pin the file in /etc/apt/preferences the package won't be upgraded. I've tried and cannot reproduce this issue.

The pinning difference between apt and synaptic is reported in bug 42178 and I'm going to mark this one as duplicate. Don't hesitate to provide information on the main report.

Thanks for your help.
