In my tests (and Osamu backed this up with a transcript of his testing session) the apt pins can only refer to 'stable' 'testing' 'unstable', not 'potato' 'woody' 'sid'. Part of the problem was that people who want to stick with woody after the release is that they can't say 'woody' in their /etc/apt/preferences . My suggestion should work around that. Also, I do recommend using 'woody' in /etc/apt/sources.list and removing lines for stable/potato. good times, Vineet -- Currently seeking opportunities in the SF Bay Area Please see http://www.doorstop.net/resume.shtml
