Hello, What's the right way to make apt use my localy compiled packages instead of those from {stable,testing,unstable}. I've made a .deb with dpkg-buildpackage and created a local repository as described in /usr/share/doc/apt-howto/en/apt-howto-en.html but apt-get still uses packages from woody:
lexa:/home# apt-cache policy libsasl7 libsasl7: Installed: 1.5.27-3 Candidate: 1.5.27-3 Version Table: 1.5.27-3.3 0 90 http://http.us.debian.org testing/main Packages 1.5.27-3.3 0 500 file: packages/ Packages *** 1.5.27-3 0 990 http://http.us.debian.org woody/main Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status I'm using apt pinning for mixing stable/unstable, but tending to stop using it since almost any package from testing/unstable want to upgrade libc and half of the system which might be not a bright idea. So I'm trying to compile source packages from unstable for installing it on my system, but want to know how to make apt-get to use my localy compiled packages. -- Best regards, Alexey Chetroi --- Smile...
