Ahh, this Cache-Limit thingy is disgusting ... ;-(
What you probably want is addition is a file /etc/apt/preferences saying
something like
Package: *
Pin: release a=stable
Pin-Priority: 500
Package: *
Pin: release a=testing
Pin-Priority: 50
to make sure that stable remains your prefered distribution.
I tried
apt-get install gnumed-client=0.2.8.10-1
but was advised there would be unmet dependencies for
python-support
gnumed-common
gnumed-doc
Is there a form of apt-get that will install the needed gnumed packages by
getting them from testing (although my default is specified to be 'stable'?
If you use pinning via the preferences file (man apt_preferences) you
get what you want with apt-get. You should even be able to use synaptic
or any other interface to apt.
Does it instead require the use of dpkg with a .deb that, if it was created,
needs to be downloaded?
No, there should be no need to use plain dpkg.
If this is explained I will put it somewhere in the wiki because it may help
to be clear how people with a stable system (even when lenny is stable) may
need to be able to update their gnumed through some means other than using
cvs
This would probably be a good idea
Andreas.
