Thats not a problem of dak. Well, dependency checks would need some
code, but moving from one to the other is what we do daily for
testing. This would just be another suite to move from and to.
The more interesting parts to tackle are
- the policy of backports suites doesn't allow this.
- Backports having a certain version number schema does help a lot for
users to see which they have installed with a simple dpkg -l.
Those are things you want to discuss with the backports team, probably
using their mailinglist.
When thats done and they want it, we are at debian-dak@ldo to discuss
how to best do it technically. :)
