Oftentimes, using the package straight from Debian/testing works fine when a package is not available as a backport. libtool 2.4.6 is needed for building VLC, so it is one example of this. The preferences file sets up the apt "pinning" so that all updates are not installed from testing, only the packages that are requested by adding "/testing" after then package name. closes #224 --- diff --git a/buildserver/provision-apt-get-install b/buildserver/provision-apt-get-install index 8f2a9b58..a60cdb99 100644 --- a/buildserver/provision-apt-get-install +++ b/buildserver/provision-apt-get-install @@ -16,6 +16,8 @@ printf 'APT::Acquire::Retries "20";\n' \ if grep --quiet jessie /etc/apt/sources.list; then echo "deb $debian_mirror jessie-backports main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/backports.list + echo "deb $debian_mirror testing main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/testing.list + printf "Package: *\nPin: release o=Debian,a=testing\nPin-Priority: -300\n" > /etc/apt/preferences.d/debian-testing fi dpkg --add-architecture i386 @@ -59,8 +61,8 @@ packages=" libsaxonb-java libssl-dev libstdc++6:i386 - libtool - libtool-bin + libtool/testing + libtool-bin/testing make maven mercurial
