Please confirm if this is still a problem with the latest version of smart.

Just testing out smart again, this time on dapper (looking forward to smart in
edgy!) and noticed that it ignores dpkg selection states.

$ dpkg --get-selections | grep hold
mgp                                             hold

$ sudo apt-get upgrade
