Re: Replacing kernel packages via apt + APT::Default-Release



Hi,

I found out why my custom packages were ignored. I had
the same problem with the new XFree86 4.2 packages, so
I started to wonder about my apt config in general.

All I had in /etc/apt/source.list was:
  APT::Default-Release "testing";

In contrast to what I was expecting this meant that 
"unclassified" packages like my own custom packages were
also ignored.

Seems like I need to look at the "pinning" feature
to define better selection rules. Any suggestions?
