Hi there,
I've been trying to use apt pinning to prevent the debian-multimedia
repo from upgrading by default any packages from Debian main
(testing). So far all my attempts have been in vain. Is there a way to
set this up as, for example, the Debian experimental repo, that
requires you to use -t to actually get the package, or at the very
least it doesn't upgrade by default?
This is my /etc/apt/preferences
Package: *
Pin: release o=Debian,a=testing
Pin-Priority: 990
Package: *
Pin: release o=Debian,a=unstable
Pin-Priority: 500
Package: *
Pin: release o=Debian,a=experimental
Pin-Priority: 1
Package: *
Pin: origin
www.debian-multimedia.org
Pin-Priority: -1
I also added this to my /etc/apt/apt.conf
APT::Default-Release "testing";
And my sources file looks like this:
# Debian testing
deb
http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ testing main contrib non-free
deb-src
http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ testing main contrib non-free
# Debian sid
deb
http://http.us.debian.org/debian/ sid main contrib non-free
deb-src
http://http.us.debian.org/debian/ sid main contrib non-free
# Debian experimental
deb
http://ftp.debian.org/debian experimental main
# Debian testing multimedia
deb
http://www.debian-multimedia.org testing main non-free
I would appreciate any help on the matter.
Thanks
Andres
