Installing select files from potato

[MallarJ@aol.com]

I have slink installed.  If I decide I want to install some files from potato,
namely GNOME, how do I set up dselect/apt to do it?  If I point my package
files at potato instead of slink, it'll upgrade everything, and I really don't
want to do that.  Nor do I want to go through the hassle of putting things I
don't want to upgrade on hold.  Is downloading the .debs separately and
running dpkg on them my only option?

Oh, and I just (stupidly) deleted the msg on GNOME 1.0 debs (with the apt
sources change).  Can someone send me a copy?

Many thanks,
Jay
