Package: live-helper
Version: 1.0~a37-2
Severity: wishlist
Hello:
I'm trying to build a CD using experimental and hence unstable. There
are packages present in both branches, but I want to install
experimental. I would like being able to specify which package version
to install for example in the package list at config/chroot_local-packageslists
like this:
package=3.96
or
package(experimental)
I think the first option congruent with aptitude syntaxis is more
convenient.
Currently the only way to do this is using local hooks and due to bug #453360
using local hooks for this is a little painful.
Thanks,

Hi,
the 'aptitude' way of specifying a package version is already possible
in e.g. local lists, as long as you use LH_APT=aptitude.
Another way to do it is to ship an own apt preferences file with the
information for pinning in config/chroot_apt/preferences. This allows to
influence all package installs, not just local lists, because the
preferences are taken up into account very early.
Regards,
Daniel
