[Bug 1679220] Re: Installer pulls packages from other releases in the pool

[Julian Andres Klode]

I might accept patches for it, but I'm not likely to work on it myself.
It sounds fairly complicated to handle, especially if users actually
want to use a different release.

Title:
  Installer pulls packages from other releases in the pool

Status in apt package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Frequently people reuse a USB stick to install another release, and
  the install fails because apt tries to pull packages from the wrong
  release.  Apt should only be looking in the pool for the current
  release rather than everything it can find.
