[http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-apt-get.en.html#s-default-version How to keep a mixed system]. Useful if you don't want to risk hosing your entire system by running unstable, but need some packages it contains. Basically, put something like:
|
|
|
|
APT::Default-Release "version";
|
|
|
|
Where version is one of stable, testing, or unstable in /etc/apt/apt.conf. Then add a source for that version to /etc/apt/sources.list. You can now get stuff from the appropriate version by doing:
|
|
|
|
apt-get -t ''distribution'' install packagename
|
|
|
|
This can also sometimes get you out of those weird dependency traps that a big upgrade will often generate.
