Backports for Wheezy [solved]

#1 Post by vinoman »

Are there backports for Wheezy yet? Isn't it the way to get newer versions of programs like iceweasel, etc. ?

I tried this link: http://wiki.debian.org/Backports
changing sqeeze to wheezy in the backports line didn't work.

See this thread: http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?p=491421#p491421

The repo entry would be something like what's shown below {change the ".us" part as needed}

Code: Select all

deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ wheezy-backports main contrib non-free
There aren't any packages in wheezy-backports yet and probably won't be until some time after Wheezy goes stable.

Thanks, I'll wait until Wheezy goes final.
