Bug Description

Binary package hint: kpackagekit

I locked a package in Synaptic that conflicts with a different package with the same name in the repositories. However, the update notifier and kpackagekit still offers me to update.

This is Kubuntu 10.10

(The package installed manually is: http://www.ing.be/xpedio/idcplg?IdcService=GET_DYNAMIC_CONVERSIONPAGE&conversionTemplate=022262_NL&dDocName=118119_EN and it is crap yes, but I needed for my bank).

Nope, but the "sudo ln -s /etc/apt/preferences /var/lib/synaptic/preferences" workaround should work.
