Hi,
Debian Wheeze onwards comes with a default installation of Dovecot 2. An
upgrade from Squeeze to Wheezy would upgrade Dovecot 1.2 -> 2.2.
When I upgrade a Squeeze server to Wheezy, how could I keep Dovecot 1.2? Could
I by Pinning the package?
Many thanks, Soph.
P.S I have posted her

I thought I had a pretty good grasp of pinning, but I can't understand the
following behavior. What I'm trying to do is, for a particular package,
always install the newest package version from either my local archive
OR lenny-backports.
My local archive is oldstable (same as lenny), and I have n

I've never used aptitude before, so after your suggestion I gave it a
try and aptitude does behave differently.
What it does is it complains of the same problem as apt, then it
offers to fix it and in every examp

Another way to look at this would be to ask...
Given two available versions of a package where the higher version has
the lower priority, how do I get apt to automatically install the
lower priority one when the higher version is required to meet a
dependency?

I'm using APT pinning to pull packages from both Ubuntu Karmic(stable)
and Ubuntu Lucid(testing) but I'm having problems getting APT to
produce the behavior I want.

I have a laptop that functions 'just right' hardware wise so I have no
interest in upgrading the compiled kernel (2.6.26 I believe), xorg, or

If you *really, really* want to do it, there is a section on
running mixed distributions in the apt HOWTO manual.

Before you go down this road, be aware that pinning is almost certainly
a bad idea
One of my servers is running stable, but I've added Unstable to my
/etc/apt/sources file, and in /etc/apt/preferences I put:
Package: *
Pin: release stable
Pin-priority: 900
Package: *
Pin: release testing
Pin-priority: 500
Package: *
Pin: release unstable
Pin-priority: 100
