Knoppix is a Debian-based Linux live DVD.
I've liked the pre-installed packages in Knoppix so much, that I've installed it to disk. My question is about /etc/apt/sources.list
In Knoppix, the sources.list file has MANY repo links, it includes links for stable, testing, unstable and experimental (lenny, squeeze, wheezy, sid...etc), all uncommented.
New install of Wheezy. I want to do the routine:
Code:
# apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
...
I'm trying to use apt-get source as a regular user on a debian squeeze system.
I want to retrieve the sources for cyrus-imapd-2.4 from the testing/wheezy repository.
apt-get source works without root privilegets; however, it seems there is no way to get apt-get to fetch anything from a repository that is not in /etc/apt/sources.list.
Is there any command line option, alternate sources.list file
Just want to make sure I understand this correctly. Wheezy is Debian testing, so if you have the "testing" repo in your sources.list file, you will track the rolling release of Wheezy as all the updates come through during the development process. Unless you change your sources to "wheezy", after the release of Wheezy, you'll then continue to track the next testing.
The Ubuntu sources.list generator, is a web application that can create custom sources.list files for various version of Ubuntu. The sources.list file tells the packaging system where it can look for software to install. The generator can add many additional sources, including those for proprietary software.
I am trying to build dwm from source.
Grabbing the source doesn't work:
(28) $ apt-get source dwm
Reading package lists... Done

I have successfully dist-upgraded to Sid, and this is the only active line in my sources.list:deb http://http.debian.net/debian sid main contrib non-freeIn addition I have replaced wheezy with sid in etc/apt/preferences...I tested it right now, and I hit the repo. No issues at all.
ı solved my problem ..1) sudo rm -rf /etc/apt/sources.list.d2) sudo geany /etc/apt/sources.list paste default source.listdeb http://packages.crunchbang.org/waldorf waldorf main
deb http://http.debian.net/debian wheezy main contrib non-free

this will be a basic howto on converting mkv container to mp4 without a full re-encode First you will need to add the deb-multimedia repo to the last line of /etc/apt/sources.list sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list Squeeze "stable":deb http://www.deb-multimedia.org squeeze main non-free Wheezy "testing": deb http://www.deb-multimedia.org wheezy main non-free Sid "unsta
