Hi! Many people asked (in messages to [EMAIL PROTECTED]) how to get the security updates when there's a newer version of the package in question in proposed-updates, so I thought that posting this here could be useful.
Here's the way I do it recently: Add (for every package you need) an entry like this into /etc/apt/preferences: Explanation: override stable-updates/stable-security desync Package: ssh Pin: release l=Debian-Security Pin-Priority: 1001 This seems to work better then othe suggested ways: - puting the package on hold (you need to override it when the security update is updated again) - removing proposed-updates from sources.list (2.4.x kernels from Herbert are there) Maybe this could be added to the security team FAQ?
