APT-pinning LMDE

Post by magnusk »

I like to have "testing" as my default source with the possibility to install packages from "unstable" and "experimental" except for Shotwell wich I want the "experimental" version to be my default and therefore be notified when Shotwell is updated in "experimental". Is this the correct way to do it in /etc/apt/preferences?

Package: *
Pin: release o=linuxmint
Pin-Priority: 700

Package: *
Pin: origin packages.linuxmint.com
Pin-Priority: 700

Package: *
Pin: release a=testing
Pin-Priority: 500

Package: *
Pin: release a=unstable
Pin-Priority: -10

Package: shotwell
Pin: release a=experimental
Pin-Priority: 500

Package: *
Pin: release a=experimental
Pin-Priority: -10
