It is enouch to have one line for testing or squeeze here. squeeze and
testing are the same until squeeze will become stable.

Testing will ever be testing. This is the pointer for the upcoming
stable release, which is currently in testing. Keeping the testing line
enables you always use the future debian version.

If you want to switch to squeeze und and use squeeze then, after it will
beome stable, then use the squeeze line.

did I upgrade to squeeze properly?

2009-03-15 Thread Michael Fothergill
Dear Debianists,

I upgraded to Squeeze recently.  My sources file looks like this:

spc1-burn4-0-0-cust452:/etc/apt# more sources.list
#
# deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux testing _Etch_ - Official Beta amd64 DVD
Binary-1
20070317-22:49]/ etch contrib main

#deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux testing _Etch_ - Official Beta amd64 DVD
Binary-1 2
0070317-22:49]/ etch contrib main

deb http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian/ squeeze main contrib non-free
deb http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian/ testing main contrib non-free
#deb-src http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian/ squeeze main contrib non free

#deb http://security.debian.org/ squeeze/updates main contrib
#deb-src http://security.debian.org/ squeeze/updates main contrib

#deb http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian/ lenny main

#deb http://security.debian.org/ lenny/updates main contrib
spc1-burn4-0-0-cust452:/etc/apt#


Is it OK to have the deb http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian/ squeeze main
contrib non-free address and the deb
http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian/testing main contrib non-free
repository address (or whatever it is called)
in their together or should only one of them be in there e.g. the testing
one?

Do they work together in a complementary fashion or could they poison one
another because the deb files in there could be a little different and it
would screw things up?

Regards
