In my case, /etc/apt/sources.list is for all machines the same and simply lists stable, testing and unstable + security.d.o. I use /etc/apt/preferences to protect against unplanned upgrades (stable has higher priority than testing, etc). I only use APT::Default-Release to refer to a release by name. If I need more (experimental, dmo, -updates), I add those in sources.list.d. Regards, Arno -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
