I personally prefer pinning for this. I have set it up such that when I cherry-pick something from unstable/experimental I get updates, until the version migrates/moves to testing/unstable, then I get the updates from there. On servers I do something similar to get cheaper backports where there are no dependency issues. pabs@chianamo:~$ cat /etc/apt/preferences Package: * Pin: release a=stable Pin-Priority: 510 Package: * Pin: release a=testing Pin-Priority: 700 Package: * Pin: release a=unstable Pin-Priority: 600 Package: * Pin: release a=experimental Pin-Priority: 550 -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-java-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
