However, my Sarge CDROMs are also excluded by this rule because Sarge
was stable when I got them. After reading "man apt_preferences," I got
the idea that I could exclude packages from release 4.0 like so:

OK, I missed the part about the self-compiled packages in your first
message. (I only saw the missing blank lines and thought I had found the
problem; later on I never looked at that first message again.)
I think you can use pinning by origin to distinguish between local
packages and the ones from Debian. The manpage of apt_preferences has
some examples of this. I never used it myself, so I don't know how well
it works.

hi all!

to improve the performance of my etch box i downloaded src packages of few
programs and recompiled them (the debian way) useing my own cflags. Now
after instalation of those recompiled packages I have a problem to keep

Hello,
I'm a long-time Linux user now experimenting with Debian for the first
time. I have a problem setting up apt package preferences.
I am using sarge with this apt.conf:
APT::Default-Release "stable";
I have configured testing/unstable as additional sources in
sources.list. My /etc/apt/pref

I am attempting to set up apt_preferences to pin priorities on
the basis of the name of a release rather than on the basis of
(stable|testing|unstable). I tried a line :
Pin: release a=etch
but this is ignored by aptitude.
I can set the priority of testing with a line :
Pin: release a=testing

Blast you and your estrogenical treachery!
In the apt_preferences man page, and in the man page apt.conf,
/etc/apt/apt.conf is referred to as a file. But there is no
such file on my Sarge system. Instead there is a directory,
/etc/apt/apt.conf.d , which contains two files,
10apt-listbugs
70debconf
These two files were put there by some
