From e41d3d7e25754f858b6dfe4dd841f4749f7f3ab1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Kalnischkies Date: Sat, 7 Jun 2014 22:46:37 +0200 Subject: do not revert candidate for protected packages In commit 21b3eac8 I promoted the check for installable dependencies to a pre-install check, which also reverts to a known good candidate (the installed version) if it fails. This revert was done even for user requested candidate switches which disabled our Broken detection so that install requests which are impossible to satisfy do not fail anymore, but print an (incomplete) solution proposal and then exit successfully.
