[Bug 473949] [NEW] Holded 2.4 version prevents graphics driver upgrading

[Tomas Teijeiro]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel

Due to Intel graphics cards performance issues in Jaunty
(https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/IntelPerformance), a commonly
used workaround was to revert driver version to 2.4 and hold it. The
problem is that if you upgrade to Karmic, holded driver is not upgraded,
and software rasterizer is used as renderer. I think this package should
be automatically unholded and upgraded.

** Affects: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu)
