Not that I'm aware of, but - there is a fairly standard way of adding to sources.list.d, so that 'apt install adduser=stable' might be made to work; otoh it might be dependency hell (less so perhaps in this particular case). If you want to test unstable's tests against stable's version I'd maybe try: git checkout 3.121 git checkout master -- debian/tests/ autopkgtest -- <etc> But I might be misunderstanding what you want to do..
