Public bug reported:

I switched all Ubuntu related feeds from the standard http protocol to
the mirror protocol

deb mirror://oss.leggewie.org/ubuntu-mirrors.php trusty-proposed main

That broke my pinning, especially to prevent automatic installations
from -proposed and -backports.

This would no longer pin down -proposed and -backports.
