I just installed following packages from Wheezy using 'dpkg -i': libgdu0_3.0.2-3_amd64.deb (same version also in Jessie) python-vte_0.28.2-5_amd64.deb (same version also in Jessie) update-manager-core_0.200.5-2.1_all.deb update-manager-gnome_0.200.5-2.1_all.deb update-notifier_0.99.3debian11_amd64.deb update-notifier-common_0.99.3debian11_all.deb
Entered following in /etc/apt/preferences for pinning: Explanation: Wheezy packages for update-notification Package: update-notifier Pin: version 0.99.3debian11 Pin-Priority: 1001 Package: update-notifier-common Pin: version 0.99.3debian11 Pin-Priority: 1001 and execute 'apt-cache gencaches' to update the cache. Then *purged* packagekit and all related stuff, keeping only "gir1.2-packagekitglib-1.0", "libpackagekit-glib2-16" That frees some 14MB of space. Reboot and uptdate-notification works fine as before. It is sad to see how Gnome invades the whole system :-( -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
