I'm running debian testing. I ran "aptitude dist-upgrade" yesterday and it wants to install a version of libfreetype6 that I'm worried will break my window manager (Window Maker). I'd like to put that version of libfreetype6 on hold until things get sorted out. I read through the aptitude man page and this looked like the proper way to do it:
aptitude forbid-version libfreetype6=2.1.10-1 When I run "aptitude show libfreetype6" it says that version is forbidden: Forbidden version: 2.1.10-1 but dist-upgrade still wants to install it. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong? If not, does anyone know if Window Maker still works with this version of libfreetype6? Thanks. Walt
