How can I stop software installed using checkinstall from being updated in the software updater?
In my case, I install emacs from source via checkinstall and set the version to 26. I have removed all system versions of emacs using apt. Every time software updater pops up it wants to update emacs. How can I stop this behaviour?
Edit:
TLDR: Ubuntu uses higher numbers than current emacs version for emacs package -- see See Why is this Emacs package versioned at 46.1? 26 is the highest possible major version today
