Hi all, Probably a stupid question, but one I don't know the answer for. Is there any simple way of telling apt or dpkg to *only* download and install security patches instead of other changes to a release [thinking testing or unstable here]. For example on one of my "stable" machines, the following happens when I do apt-get upgrade -u:
The following packages will be upgraded kdewallpapers mime-support 2 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded. Need to get 0B/1030kB of archives. After unpacking 105kB will be freed. Do you want to continue? [Y/n] Obviously neither is of real security importance, but will be updated nevertheless. [I don't want to remove the standard stable source from sources.list] Sources.list: deb ftp://ftp.is.co.za/linux/distributions/debian stable main contrib non-free deb http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US stable/non-US main contrib non-free deb http://security.debian.org stable/updates main contrib non-free Ideas/suggestions? Regards, Rudolph
