No. Since basically every relevant web page tells you "don't install binaries from another release, backport the sources", I only added deb-src lines to avoid accidentally getting testing binaries pulled by some dependency sometime. And sorry for not checking every 3-7 year old bug before trying to use a basic Debian tool such as apt-get ... ;) But as Markus Wanner wrote, that doesn't seem to be the issue, anyway. > Do either of the following work? > apt-get source flightgear/testing --only-source Yes.
