No, not quite. I imagined something like "apt-get -t update wheezy-backports" and then "apt-get upgrade libreoffice-* | grep installed" or some similar command. Just to make sure, to update ONLY the libreoffice-packages (and libs) out of wheezy-backports.

Yes, this is , what I thought, too. But I learned, that this is not the case. In testing the libreoffice version is 3.5.4, whilst in wheezy-backports already is 4.0! IMO this is strange, as testing IMO should be higher and newer versions than in stable. But in real, libreoffice4 is in unstable(!), and from unstable ported to backports. I do not quite understand the policy in this behaviour, sorry. :) Best regards Hans > > Kind regards, > Andrei -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
