Hello If a User upgrades his woody system to sarge and one package that has been part of woody is now no longer part of Debian nor being superseded by another package, will apt-get warn the user that this package is a potential security risk as Debian does not monitor nor provide fixes for reported security issues in this package?
For such a cases it would even be a reasonable advice to have both, woody/updates and sarge/updates, in the sources.list, or? A possible solution would be to be asked to flag such packages with echo "mypackage local" | dpkg --set-selections or similar which would then surpress the apt-get warnings or optionally show them explicitly as "watch these on your own". bye, -christian- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
