Hi debianers, In the dist/proposed-updates directory there is a README file stating
Debian is committed to providing security updates to the stable distribution as quickly as possible, but we also need time to thoroughly test such updates to ensure that they meet our high standards. Updates to stable are placed in this directory, dists/proposed-updates. After testing, and possible bug-fixing, a new release of the stable distribution is made which includes them. You can access this directory with apt by adding deb http://ftp1.us.debian.org/debian dists/proposed-updates/ to your /etc/apt/sources.list Well, I done it but apt complais about a "Malformed line" in the /etc/apt/sources.list file, precisely the one above. Looking into the doc, I found that there should be the components to download such as main contrib.. I tried to add something like main, but the it complains it can find http://ftp1.us.debian.org/debian/dists/proposed-updates/main/binary-i386/Packages file... Aparently, directory proposed-updates is structured differently from potato/main: files belonging to different architectures are differenciated by their suffix instead to be found into separate subdirectories. The question is: how do I do to have apt looking into proposed-updates?
