Re: Use Debian lenny package on Debian squeeze
Dear Alex,
Sorry for the late reply, I was away a few days. I am pretty sure it is squeeze
but it was lenny before and has been updated to squeeze recently.
Here is the output of lsb_release -a:
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Debian
Description: Debian GNU/Linux 6.0 (squeeze)
Release: 6.0
Codename: squeeze
And the content of /etc/apt/sources.list:
# squeeze
deb http://ftp.ch.debian.org/debian/ squeeze main contrib non-free
deb-src http://ftp.ch.debian.org/debian/ squeeze main contrib non-free
# unstable
#deb http://ftp.ch.debian.org/debian/ unstable main contrib non-free
# Security updates
deb http://security.debian.org/ squeeze/updates main contrib no
n-free
deb-src http://security.debian.org/ squeeze/updates main contrib no
n-free
# dotdeb
deb http://packages.dotdeb.org stable all
deb-src http://packages.dotdeb.org stable all
Hope this helps. Let me know if you need anymore information.
Regards
