apt-get hold and unhold.

[folke]

From what I understand is the right way to place
packages on hold:

echo " hold" | dpkg --set-selections

Is there a way to "unhold" them?

[lacek]

To put a package to hold:
echo "package_name hold"|dpkg --set-selections

to 'unhold' it:
echo "package_name install"|dpkg --set-selecions

Thanx.

exactly what I'm looking for.
