Re: Configure apt for "stable"?



stable -> woody, aka Debian 3.0
testing -> sarge
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
That is why I stopped myself from saying more.  testing !=> sarge, I
don't think, because Sarge base is frozen, no?  So testing should have
some newer stuff in it.

It depends on where you look. The symlink for testing points to sarge; eg:

  ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/

-- snip --
lrwxrwxrwx    1 1176     1176            5 Jan 13 05:09 testing -> sarge
-- snip --

IMO, as of this moment, testing == sarge.

My plan to keep current sarge machines staying sarge is to keep 'sarge' listed in my sources.list and not have 'testing'.

Sincerely,
Jeremy
