Technically, release a=<foo> matches any package where its repository's Release file has: Suite: <foo> It's just that the Release files in the official repositories use the stable/testing/unstable instead of Lenny/Squeeze/Sid monikers. Over @ backports.org, they use lines like: Suite: lenny-backports in their Release files, so it is different. The apt_preferences manpage still refers to an 'Archive:' line which isn't in the current release files. It also doesn't mention any way to match the 'Codename:' line. -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. ,= ,-_-. =. b...@iguanasuicide.net ((_/)o o(\_)) ICQ: 514984 YM/AIM: DaTwinkDaddy `-'(. .)`-' http://iguanasuicide.net/ \_/
