I changed the repository to my local one (I mirrored the above) Now it's: deb http://mirror.malagasy.com/GS binary/ Why, because before using it for production, I choosed to check it a bit and recompile/rebuild the package. Then I put it in my own repository. I kept the name: postfix, to ease the repackaging. Also, I have a local mirror of ftp.debian.org: deb http://mirror.malagasy.com/debian lenny main >> But the package name (postfix) is the same. >> That means if I have official Debian reposotories _and_ that one >> enabled, what is the expected behaviour of apt if I perform a >> "apt-get install postfix" ? >Try >apt-cache policy postfix r...@second-camel:~# apt-cache policy postfix postfix: Installed: 2.5.5-1.1 Candidate: 2.5.5-1.2-vda0 Version table: 2.5.5-1.2-vda0 0 500 http://mirror.malagasy.com binary/ Packages <== my repo *** 2.5.5-1.1 0 500 http://mirror.malagasy.com lenny/main Packages ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ local mirror of official debian 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status >If the version is lower (apt-cache will tell you) then you will indeed >need some pinning.

Above is the output you need to guide me :-) what to put in /etc/apt/preference so that the priority is given to "deb http://mirror.malagasy.com/GS binary/", just for "postfix"? -- Architecte Informatique chez Blueline/Gulfsat: Administration Systeme, Recherche & Developpement +261 34 29 155 34 / +261 33 11 207 36 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
