If they are in your repo it should be straight forward.
Yes, they are all there. Should be relatively straight forward to find them if you start browsing from http://debian.jones.dk/pkg/icecast/ I guess you could also use the following APT line, but frankly I haven't tested for some time if deb-src works properly on my site: deb-src http://debian.jones.dk/ etch icecast Only backports not part of the icecast pool is the build tools available from the src pool: deb-src http://debian.jones.dk/ etch src or both of them together: deb-src http://debian.jones.dk/ etch src icecast >> * Backported icecast2 links against backportet libshout.

Is "binNMUs" then done automagically? Yes, the problem is similar to main Debian (all packages are built against unstable, not rebuilt when entering testing), but bpo has less eyeballs, I suspect. Oh - and I suspect my example with ffmpeg is a quite valid one: Some cases of undefined img_convert occur at runtime (try install freej in Lenny and then update libav* to the ones from debian-multimedia.org ). - Jonas - -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist og Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ - Enden er nær: http://www.shibumi.org/eoti.htm -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAkiAru8ACgkQn7DbMsAkQLhVAgCgk7A6r3hfkhQTDqCRRaw8hejc IKkAn3jp79xdiI9FX7zg18VdD7hlWQ0K =v351 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
