Re: [Gretl-users] Debian Repository for Latest Version of Gretl
Using Ubuntu 8.04, I put the lenny repository into synaptic and updated
all the files that appeared to be associated with Gretl. I then
deactivated the lenny repository because synaptic wanted to update ~600
other files. Everything seems to be working fine. So, assuming that I
have not broken something I have yet to discover, what functions do the
APT commands serve (I am a beginner on linux)? Thanks for the help.

Hi,
it's simple and... it isn't. The newest version - 1.7.4 - exists in
lenny distro (deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian lenny main). But if
you use current stable Debian version you have to make so colled "mixed"
distribution consists on stable and testing distros. To do it just add
following lines to /etc/apt/apt.conf:
APT::Default-Release "testing";
APT::Cache-Limit 20000000;
APT::Get::AllowUnauthenticated 1;
Than add such line to sources:
deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian lenny main
After that: apt-get update, apt-get install gretl -t testing
