Bug Description
Binary package hint: synaptic
This happens in Karmic 64bit. For example, I try to downgrade avahi packages by selecting them all, then I go to Package->Force Version... and select the lower version and click Force Version button, however only the last selected package is affected.
In contrast, if I want to lock package version, Package=>Lock version works as expected on multiple selections.

Thanks for your report.
confirmed with latest version of synaptic in lucid.
Setting to wishlist because currently it's a design decision to only apply to one package since you must choose the version to force for each package, it's not easily doable for a list of packages.
Force Version should probably be disabled when multiple packages are selected.
