Hi, I have two questions related to file pattern matching and specifying comments in /etc/apt/preferences
1) I would like to pin all jed packages so that they don't get upgraded because I made som personal modifications to them. Those packages are jed, jed-common, jed-sl and xjed. I thought I should be able to do something like Package: *jed* Pin: version 0.99.15-1 Pin-Priority: 50 But not so. Do I really need to have a full record for each of them? 2) Is it possible to specify comments in /etc/apt/preferences?
