Maybe see what Andrei suggests.
Mmm, depends on what your goal is, but as far as I know backports is not suitable to be used like that. In fact, the latest recommendation[1] is to not pin at all, since backports has priority 100 by default, which is enough to have backported packages upgraded (in case of bugs), but otherwise the system stays stable[2] [1] http://backports-master.debian.org/Instructions/ [2] ... as in the stable release/version/distribution, not "not crashing" stable ;) Kind regards, Andrei -- Offtopic discussions among Debian users and developers: http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/d-community-offtopic
