Also (or related), "Recovery Console's", "Fix Broken Packages" also ignores any "Pinned" packages.

For example: I have Avidemux 2.4.4 Pinned in Synaptic to not upgrade, but this tool (in recovery menu) ignores that and automatically assigns the upgrade to Avidemux.

Since there are no options to select or deselect, this renders the entire tool unusable in this case.
