Weird. I just tried it and I also get the unstable version. However, there is a workaround: Use `apt-cache showpkg pan' to find out what the available versions are; I see: Versions: 0.13.1-5(/var/lib/apt/lists/mirrors.midco.net_debian_dists_unstable_main_binary-i386_Packages) 0.13.0-4(/var/lib/apt/lists/mirrors.midco.net_debian_dists_testing_main_binary-i386_Packages) 0.11.2-1(/var/lib/apt/lists/mirrors.midco.net_debian_dists_woody_main_binary-i386_Packages) So, 0.13.0-4 is the version you want. To get it, do apt-get source pan=0.13.0-4 I'm looking for the reference, but I remember reading that `apt-get source' doesn't work the same way as `apt-get install' WRT the -t switch and pinning.
