echo 'APT::Default-Release squeeze;'  /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/00local

If you have apt older than 0.7.22 you will have to use testing instead 
of squeeze.

upgrade dependencies of a package

2009-09-11 Thread Liviu Andronic 
Dear all
How do I get upgrade all the dependencies of a given package to their
newest available version? I do not want in the process to  upgrade the
entire distribution. I am looking something similar to Gentoo's
emerge -av -DNu package

Thank you
Liviu
