I'm running Woody. I downloaded and compiled the latest Samba Debian source
packe and installed it. Now every attempt to run apt-get install xxx gets
the complain:
Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies:
  samba: Depends: libpam-runtime (>= 0.76-13.1) but 0.72-35 is installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f.

So, I decided to upgrade libpam-runtime manually to the latest testing
version (which is 0.76-15 according to
http://packages.debian.org/testing/base/libpam-runtime page). When I now
run:
 apt-get -t testing install libpam-runtime
I still get:
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
Sorry, libpam-runtime is already the newest version.
You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these:
Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies:
  samba: Depends: libpam-runtime (>= 0.76-13.1) but 0.72-35 is to be
installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify
a solution).

I don't have the latest development version installed:
 dpkg -l | grep libpam-runtime
ii  libpam-runtime 0.72-35        Runtime support for the PAM library


My sources.list file is:
deb http://mirrors.kernel.org/debian/ stable main
deb-src http://mirrors.kernel.org/debian/ stable main
deb http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US stable/non-US main
deb-src http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US stable/non-US main
deb http://security.debian.org/ stable/updates main


How do I get access to this particular testing package? Do I have to change
"stable" to "testing" in the sources.list file? I don't want that. I would
like to update only the required package and keep everything else "stable"
if possible.


I use backports like this in /etc/apt/sources.list :

deb http://www.ecology.uni-kiel.de/mirrors/debian/backports.org/debian stable vim apache2 deb-src http://www.ecology.uni-kiel.de/mirrors/debian/backports.org/debian stable vim apache2

I can specify that I want only vim and apache2

Thanks,
