Yo!
with this apt/preferences:
=====
Package: *
Pin: release a=testing
Pin-Priority: 700
Package: *
Pin: release l=Debian-Security
Pin-Priority: 750
=====
And additionally unstable and the kde debs on ftp.kde.org in the
sources.list (the get pin-prio 500, right?), I now want to install the
newest kmail from ftp.kde.org.
So, I do
=====
[avbidder@atlas avbidder]$ apt-cache policy kmail
kmail:
Installed: (none)
Candidate: 4:2.2.2-14.1
Version Table:
4:3.0.3-1 0
500 ftp://ftp.kde.org ./ Packages
4:2.2.2-14.1 0
700 http://zeuxis.acter.ch testing/main Packages
500 http://zeuxis.acter.ch unstable/main Packages
=====
And then
=====
[avbidder@atlas avbidder]$ sudo apt-get install kmail=4:3.0.3-1
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
[blah blah blah]
Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies:
kmail: Depends: kdelibs4 (>= 4:3.0.3) but it is not going to be
installed
Depends: libkdenetwork2 (>= 4:3.0.3) but it is not going to be
installed
Depends: libqt3-mt (>= 2:3.0.5-2) but 2:3.0.4-2 is to be
installed
E: Sorry, broken packages
====
All dependencies are satisfiable from unstable and ftp.kde.org. How can
I configure apt so that I still have basically a testing system (so I'll
still have to specify kmail=... when I want this version), but it should
then satisfy dependencies automatically (I *did* request an explicit
version of one package, so I obviously want this.)
Anybody?
thanks & cheers
