    Using Deepin-software-center (Deepin Store), how do I prevent an application I have installed from being upgraded?

    I have used this feature already in the past, as far as I can remember, by clicking the default "upgrade" word that is found to the right of the installed application on the Upgrade tab, which then allows me to select a 'do not upgrade' option.  But doing this does not work!

    What am I doing wrong?

    Bump.

    I still can't figure out how to stop a particular application from being automatically upgraded by Deepin Store.  I could 'lock' an app with Deepin 2012 that would prevent this, but not with the current Deepin 2014.  I vaguely remember that getting this to work with Deepin 2012 was slightly counter-intuitive, so maybe I'm doing something wrong!

    Or is this functionality now broken in Deepin Store?

    Hi, here's a command way:
    you can hold a package using
    1. sudo aptitude hold package_name
    Copy the Code
    and remove the hold with
    1. sudo aptitude unhold package_name
    Copy the Code


    I guess apt-get and dpkg also have similar commands.
