This worked until I switched to the mirror protocol and it works again
now that I dropped those entries.

Title:
  mirror protocol breaks pinning

Status in apt package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  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.

  +--[ /etc/apt/preferences ]
  |
  | ## PIN by release ##
  | Package: *
  | Pin: release a=*-proposed
  | Pin-Priority: 98
  |
  | Package: *
  | Pin: release a=*-backports
  | Pin-Priority: 97
  |
  +--

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