apt unable to install particular version of package (but gives no error)
- by Arc2009
I'd like to install particular version of libstd++6 with following command:
# apt-get install libstdc++6=4.9.0-8 -V
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
The following extra packages will be installed:
libstdc++6 (4.8.2-16)
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 216 not upgraded.
It gives no error, but apt keeps version that was already installed.
And also it refers to this package as "extra".
There's no apt preferences set in /etc/apt/preferences.d.
And the desirable version is definetely available through our local mirror.
(If I try to run "apt-get download libstdc++6=4.9.0-8" it will download exactly desirable version.)
System info:

# uname -a

# dpkg -l |egrep -i "apt|dpkg"
ii apt 0.9.16.1 amd64 commandline package manager
ii dpkg 1.17.6 amd64 Debian package management system
Any suggestions?
