Or maybe we just stick with "testing" and set up "unstable" via apt pinning
for surgical per-package updates. One of many HOWTOs:
http://jaqque.sbih.org/kplug/apt-pinning.html
I've used this quite a bit in the past and it "Just Work (TM)".
Using testing as my regular Debian, this is how I do it: apt pinning on
stable/testing/unstable, with testing on 900, stable on 800, unstable on
90, and every priority package on > 900.
Then a selection of R packages from official Debian unstable repositories
are also set up with 900 (I may have missed a few since I didn't update the
list for a while):
Package: r-base r-base-core r-base-dev r-recommended r-cran-boot
r-cran-cluster r-cran-class r-cran-codetools r-cran-foreign
r-cran-kernsmooth r-cran-lattice r-cran-mass r-cran-matrix r-cran-mgcv
r-cran-nlme r-cran-nnet r-cran-rmatrix r-cran-rpart r-cran-spatial
r-cran-survival r-cran-tkrplot littler
Pin: release o=Debian,a=unstable,l=Debian
Pin-Priority: 900
Works like a charm... R 3.1.2 from SID.
Hope this helps! (I can provide a more detailed source.list/preferences if
necessary)
Mathieu.
