Quoting the manpage: If you want to test that a package installs properly in the stable (currently lenny) Debian release, then can be upgraded to the testing (currently squeeze) and unstable (sid) versions, and then uninstalled without problems, you would give the following command: piuparts -a -d lenny -d squeeze -d sid foo > Trying to backport latest trac-bitten 0.6b3 to install on development > machine, which is running lenny. Ah. I dont bother filing bugs in lenny anymore (unless severe ones). If you can reproduce it in sid, great! (Then I'd file..) > Please, CC. Done, please don't cc: me :) cheers, Holger
