Re: Upgrading from source
Have you try to use `apt-build' utility combined with the `preferences'
mechanism ?

Dear List,
Anybody got a good way to go from an installed Debian package to a new
version compiled from source, while several other packages depend on
said package and retaining the integrity of the system using equivs?
In other words, I would want something like temporarily removing a
package upon which other packages depend, only to replace it with a
dummy package created by equivs, so that those dependencies are met once
again. After that, I want to install a new version of the package from
source.
