Dear Debian users, I am sure many of us would like to use the latest version of some applications even while we are on Debian stable. While I am aware that backports do exist, I prefer making my own backports, especially for those packages which are not supported by the semi-official Debian backports service.
I was wondering if some of you had a workflow with a level of automation to achieve this task. Currently, my workflow is: update stable pbuilder chroot -> Download source from unstable -> pdebuild -> dpkg -i the debs. I was thinking that should script these actions and get the file dumped to a personal repository which is present in my sources.list, but I was hoping someone already had a better solution. Thanks in advance. Kumar P. S. Please don't advise me to use testing; I do that anyway usually, but this is for a different machine. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
