Sorry about that! that was a quite stupid mistake I made. I have a question, if I uncomment these lines in my sources.list: # shame (Uunstable lenny) #deb http://download.tuxfamily.org/shames/debian-lenny/desktopfx/unstable/ ./ # avant-window-navigator #deb http://www.arearelax.org/awn/ ./ considering my apt.conf: APT::Default-Release "testing"; How will apt react since these packages, even if they are made for testing distribution do not seams to be marked as being so? They are only in a folder of the repos. In addition the same packages might appear in sid or experimental. I thought I could do this kind of preferences file: *===================================* Explanation: Sid Package: * Pin: release a=unstable Pin-Priority:500 Explanation: Lenny Package: * Pin: release a=testing Pin-Priority: 501 Explanation: Experimental Package: * Pin: release a=experimental Pin-Priority:80 *===================================* But I am not sure it will work either. Here is my sources.list: *===================================* ## etch #deb http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian/ stable main contrib non-free #deb-src http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian/ stable main contrib non-free # debian-marillat #deb http://www.debian-multimedia.org stable main #deb-src http://www.debian-multimedia.org stable main # security #deb http://security.debian.org/ stable/updates main contrib non-free #deb-src http://security.debian.org/ stable/updates main contrib non-free ## lenny deb http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian/ testing main contrib non-free deb-src http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian/ testing main contrib non-free # debian-marillat deb http://www.debian-multimedia.org testing main deb-src http://www.debian-multimedia.org testing main # security deb http://security.debian.org/ testing/updates main contrib non-free deb-src http://security.debian.org/ testing/updates main contrib non-free # shame (Uunstable lenny) #deb http://download.tuxfamily.org/shames/debian-lenny/desktopfx/unstable/ ./ # avant-window-navigator #deb http://www.arearelax.org/awn/ ./ ## sid deb http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian/ unstable main contrib non-free deb-src http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian/ unstable main contrib non-free # debian-marillat deb http://www.debian-multimedia.org sid main deb-src http://www.debian-multimedia.org sid main # shame (stable sid) #deb http://download.tuxfamily.org/shames/debian-sid/desktopfx/stable/ ./ ## experimental deb http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian/ experimental main contrib non-free deb-src http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian/ experimental main contrib non-free # debian-marillat deb http://www.debian-multimedia.org experimental main deb-src http://www.debian-multimedia.org experimental main *===================================* Thank you! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
