Seems like fapman does not care if the package that's about to be installed conflicts with another package. It installs the package anyway.

Thanks a lot for adding sorting. I really like your app. Could you please add sorting by repositories? Example extras-devel and extras?
Also, it is impossible to know what repository a package has been originally installed from. It's only possible to see what repository a package is now in.

What packages have you experienced this with?

And to get apt-get to install the correct version, you'd have to disable the repos that are not wanted and update the catalogs anyway... (at least unless some advanced package/repository pinning is used).
And by the way, manually setting pinning options in apt-get config will probably break fapman functionality completely... So don't do that if you wish to use fapman

It'd be nice to know what you have installed without going through every single package. And to know from where you're installing too.
