On Wheezy I am using the current backports kernel, which I set up via
# echo "deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian wheezy-backports main" > \
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/wheezy-backports.list
# apt-get update
# apt-get -t wheezy-backports install linux-image-amd64 linux-headers-amd64
Likewise, I am currently running with a 3.14 kernel.
Now, when I do a regular apt-get update && apt-get upgrade
, I am offered the following:
The following packages will be upgraded:
*** *** linux-image-3.2.0-4-amd64
Is that expected behavior? Am I required to deny this when I want to keep the 3.14 kernel? How to permanently make aptitude ignore the canonical kernel package and to only follow backports (either I am running the backports kernel or I am not, switching between them as aptitude wishes does not make sense).
