Public bug reported:

I wanted to test an SRU kernel in -proposed; as suggested by the Wiki
page, I used the following apt preferences to pin the trusty-proposed
pocket to a lower priority:

$ cat /etc/apt/preferences.d/proposed-updates 
Package: *
Pin: release a=trusty-proposed
Pin-Priority: 400

After installing the kernel package, I started a normal update.

apt-get -us dist-upgrade didn't show any updates coming via proposed,
but the actual apt-get -u dist-upgrade claimed the packages were coming
from trusty-proposed all the same:

sarnold@hunt:/var/cache/apt$ sudo apt-get -us dist-upgrade | grep prop

But it is certainly enough to make me ^C the download and inspect what's going on.
