Remember that for a "backport" Jaunty already has the new package version. You are just recompiling it. dpkg-source -x hello.dsc cd hello-2.3 dch -i debuild -S && pbuilder build ../new_version_backport.dsc > > > How do I get the Jaunty package in a Intrepid environment?

Then just run "dget -ux http://that_link/foo.dsc" Or see the attached script 'lpget'. For example, "lpget bash" fetches bash from jaunty and extracts it (equivalent to dget -ux, just it finds the dsc URL automatically); "lpget bash/intrepid" fetches bash from intrepid.
