Okay, for the purposes of this exercise, I've effectively got:
deb ftp://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian unstable main contrib non-free
deb http://people.debian.org/~ccheney/kde-other ./
deb http://phebehouse.dyndns.org/pub/kdepim ./
in my sources.list, and:
Package: *
Pin: release unstable
Pin-priority: 800
Package: *
Pin: origin people.debian.org
Pin-Priority: 880
Package: *
Pin: origin phebehouse.dyndns.org
Pin-Priority: 850
in my /etc/apt/preferences file.
This tells apt to give Debian/unstable a priority of 800 (i.e. higher
than already installed debs and higher than the default for 'other'
sources), but gives the two unofficial sources even higher priority
than Debian unstable.
This means that the unofficial debs of kdenetwork and kdepim will be
prefered over the old ones in Debian/unstable, but Debian/unstable will
be used for everything else (i.e. everything not in the two unofficial
sources).
Please ask if you would like further details.
