Just noticed
        surf --version
doesn't work.

But aptitude indeed does tell me I'm using 0.6.

Looking at backports.  Now have surf 0.7.

With the backports lines in /etc/apt/sources.list, will everything automatically
get upgraded to the backports version if I do
        aptitude update
        aptitude upgrade
?  I don't see anything in /etc/apt to stop this.  I'd like to be able to have 
some 
control over which packages I get from backports.

Or am I better off from a security perspective to always get backports updates 
for 
everything?
