Hi Mika,

according to apt-cache policy the "n" is fine:

 500 http://security.debian.org/ squeeze/updates/main amd64 Packages
     release v=6.0,o=Debian,a=stable,n=squeeze,l=Debian-Security,c=main
     origin security.debian.org

Anyway, I tried it with "a" also but I didn't mention it as it was by 
accident during my first try.

What makes me wonder is that "apt-cache policy" doesn't show any entries 
below "Pinned packages:".

I also tried using /etc/apt/preferences instead of 
/etc/apt/preferences.d/php, but nothing changes.

Bye.
