Hi all, Happily back on debian again and with it more questions...:)
Question: Is there a way to tell apt to never upgrade a certain package? while upgrading everything else? Details: I have to use pptp-client to connect to my adsl provider. This in itself is not a problem, but the only version that works is in the stable collection of packages. I am running unstable/testing for most packages, and I am loving it, however for pptp-client to work I need to have pptp, pppd, and the mppe patch in the kernel at the same level. mppe patch in kernel - I have this from the kernel-patch-mppe package The same version of mppe patch in pppd - in stable this works fine, but updating to a more recent version of pppd breaks the pptp/pppd cooperation. So what I would like to do is install/keep the stable ppp package, keep the pptp-client as it is, and the kernel has already been recompiled with the needed bits and pieces, and is humming along nicely, and be able to upgrade everything else without messing with ppp. Tia, and another question Rohan Nicholls www.AnswerWeb.nl tel +31(0)20 - 4121407 fax +31(0)20 - 6897895 [EMAIL PROTECTED] AnswerWeb Prinsengracht 468 1017 KG Amsterdam The Netherlands -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
