In addition to the message above:

Also pinning doesn't seems to work when building the live-cd. I have a 
file called 'preferences' in 
debianlive/config/chroot_local-includes/etc/apt   with:

Package: *
Pin: release a=testing
Pin-Priority: 900

Package: *
Pin: release o=Debian
Pin-Priority: -10

Besides this, it should work with only the apt.conf file...

Thanks in advance,
