Hello, I've used Debian on and off but now I have a pocketchip from https://nextthing.co/ and it uses debian and I'm not about to switch. I follow several projects closely (nano, lynx, a few others), and what I want to do is to tell apt to: 1. Download the latest and greatest source code of version of package X 2. Resolve all dependencies of package X downloading source code 3. Resolve packages that depend on X and download source code 4. Compile sources and install X and dependencies.
I realize that several of theses steps may make up one actual command and visa-versa. What I'm trying to do is to avoid running pieces unstable or testing software (except for the package I asked for (such as nano)), while still having a few newer packages. Thanks, David
