Hi, I decided upgrade my Latitude D630 to unstable from testing.
First, I have googled and having found that the good way was to set the Pin-Priority in /etc/apt/preferences, and set /etc/apt/apt.conf to unstable, and change sources.list, like this: :~$ cat /etc/apt/preferences Package: * Pin: release a=stable Pin-Priority: 600 Package: * Pin: release a=testing Pin-Priority: 650 Package: * Pin: release a=unstable Pin-Priority: 700 :~$ :~$ cat /etc/apt/apt.conf APT::Default-Release "unstable"; :~$ :~$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list (...) deb http://ftp.br.debian.org/debian/ stable main contrib non-free (...) deb http://ftp.br.debian.org/debian/ testing main contrib non-free (...) deb http://ftp.br.debian.org/debian/ unstable main contrib non-free (...) I run aptitude update followed by aptitude safe-upgrade. All work very good! When I ran aptitude full-upgrade, nothing was done! All changes was done when I ran safe-upgrade! Ok, I am happy here. All work very well. On the day after, the update-manager run and tell me a lot of upgrades packages. I simple do all changes. In my first boot after that action the X didn't goes up. I ran aptitude safe-upgrade and it corrected a lot of break packages. Nautilus, foe example, was downgrade to stable version. Why update-manager don't consider the /etc/apt/preferences? Why update-manager work different than aptitude? There are mistakes in my configuration? What do you suggest me to get the latest versions of packages without hard problems?
