Put the one your prefer first.
maybe I'm doing something wrong, but I see _no_ difference at all that the order in sources.list makes. I've tried it both this way: deb http://llug.sep.bnl.gov/debian stable main contrib non-free deb http://llug.sep.bnl.gov/debian unstable main contrib non-free and this way: deb http://llug.sep.bnl.gov/debian unstable main contrib non-free deb http://llug.sep.bnl.gov/debian stable main contrib non-free and either way, for all of the packages which are in both hamm and slink, dselect wants to upgrade to the slink versions... -brad
