Dear Sebastian, I am doing that with pinning ( not really lenny but etch-backports).
You have to create a preferences file like: Package: * Pin: release a=etch-backports Pin-Priority: 900 Package: * Pin: release o=Debian,a=stable Pin-Priority: 800 Package: * Pin: release o=Debian,a=testing Pin-Priority: 400 Package: * Pin: release o=Debian,a=unstable Pin-Priority: 300 Package: * Pin: release o=Debian Pin-Priority: 10 and place it on the chroot_sources directory of your configuration. It will be placed on /etc/apt/preferences if you apply the following patch to lh_chroot_sources: ( Is it already available in live-helper?) for FILE in config/chroot_sources/*.bootstrap do cat ${FILE} | grep -v "^##" >> chroot/etc/apt/sources.list done + + # PAIPIX deal with the apt Pin + [ -f config/chroot_sources/preferences ] && cp config/chroot_sources/preferences chroot/etc/apt/preferences + fi # Update indices from cache Also add the corresponding line to sources.list.bootstrap and sources.list.binary deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian testing main contrib non-free Please keep in ming that using one opf the most common packages in lenny will force you libc6 and a series of other packages to be upgraded. Hope this helps a bit. All the best, Antonio Amorim Sebastian Hilbert escreveu: > Hi, > > Is it possible to tell live-helper to install gnumed-client from testing > while > keeping the rest from etch ? > > apt-pinning ? > > It tries to update many packages from testing if I add the repository. > _______________________________________________ debian-live-devel mailing list debian-live-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/debian-live-devel
