[...] Afaict, there are still different pins: http://debian.sil.at/debian-volatile/dists/etch/volatile-sloppy/main/binary-i386/Release Archive: etch-sloppy Component: main Origin: volatile.debian.org Label: debian-volatile NotAutomatic: yes Architecture: i386 http://debian.sil.at/debian-volatile/dists/etch/volatile/main/binary-i386/Release Archive: etch Component: main Origin: volatile.debian.org Label: debian-volatile Architecture: i386 Therefore release o=volatile.debian.org,a=etch,l=debian-volatile release o=volatile.debian.org,a=etch-sloppy,l=debian-volatile should work. It is hard to really test, since there are no Packages in etch-sloppy yet. It is possible that the "main" Release file http://debian.sil.at/debian-volatile/dists/etch/volatile-sloppy/Release overrides the one in the arch subdirectories. cu andreas -- `What a good friend you are to him, Dr. Maturin.
