Package: apt Version: 0.5.4 Severity: normal My /etc/apt/preferences is:
Package: * Pin: release a=testing Priority: 1001 I want to downgrade from unstable to testing. No default release is set in /etc/apt/apt.conf. After I apt-get update, I type apt-cache policy <any pkg> and discover that the testing version has priority 989 (which I recognize as the default) while the unstable version (which is installed) has priority 500. So no downgrade occurs when I apt-get dist-upgrade. Any thoughts why the 1001 priority is not being set here? Thanks. -- System Information Debian Release: testing/unstable Architecture: i386 Kernel: Linux pvr 2.4.20 #1 SMP Tue Dec 10 02:57:13 CET 2002 i686 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C Versions of packages apt depends on: ii libc6 2.3.1-9 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2 1:2.95.4-15 The GNU stdc++ library
