Right have fixed my last apt mistake,
I was wondering how to exclude a particular package from being updated by apt. I have added the follwoing entry
// never update the packages in this list
Unattended-Upgrade::Package-Blacklist {
// "vim";
"binutils";
};
to my /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades but it still tries to update biutils when I run apt-upgrade or the auto update thingy in dapper.
Thanks
Jason
