This reverts commit 66ec0dfad8ac1d4d8646a4734eb9353f3ebc0a91. This creates too much churn in the translation.

sources.list(5): Explicitly say what the precedence order is

2025-05-19T16:07:34Z

The order of apt sources can matter, but this man page did not previously define whether /etc/apt/sources.list was parsed before or after the fragment files in sources.list.d. Giving a concrete example also provides a hint that numeric prefixes are a useful way to force a particular sort order, and clarifies that the .list or .sources extension is less important than lexicographic order.

apt_preferences(5): Specify the order in which files are parsed

2025-05-19T16:05:40Z

The order of preference stanzas matters, but this man page did not previously define whether /etc/apt/preferences was parsed before or after the fragment files in preferences.d. Giving a concrete example also provides a hint that numeric prefixes are a useful way to force a particular sort order, and clarifies that the presence or absence of the .pref extension is less important than lexicographic order.

Recognize the method and update the documentation and prompts.

Introduce apt why, apt why-not

2025-05-19T15:20:09Z

These are implemented somewhat differently from aptitudes why and why-not commands: They produce the actual solver trace for why a particular decision has been taken. For the why-not case, we need to explicitly discover our specified package, as if nothing else depends on it in our graph, it would otherwise always be undiscovered and conflicts not detected (see e.g. level-3 in the test).
