Hi,
I've just tried to upgrade my packages (wanting to use the new poedit), and found that tazpkg upgrades packages whatever their "blocked" status. (I've blocked e.g. java-jre so that Sun Java doesn't get overwritten by icedtea.) Is this a known bug?
If tazpkg-beta does not have the bug and is nearly ready to be released, this can wait, otherwise a patch would be most welcome (the code is too intricate for me to suggest one).
