Re: Segmentation Fault since Debian unstable upgra
 

I'm pretty sure aptitude allows to set packages on hold, either through its interface (a bit clumsy for my tastes), or via a command (aptitude hold package_name ; unhold to remove the hold).

There should be other ways around the problem, of course (dpkg or dselect). Then again, it's not as if I update packages *that* often, being on stable and all. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Re: Segmentation Fault since Debian unstable upgra
 

I've done the 'hold' thing before, and I'd have to go figure it out again...

Except, I updated again this morning and had to do an apt-get -f install to fix the dependcy problems I'd created. apt wanted to install libsdl1.2debian-alsa, so I let it and that seems to work fine.
