Just noticed
surf --version
doesn't work.
But aptitude indeed does tell me I'm using 0.6.
Looking at backports. Now have surf 0.7.
With the backports lines in /etc/apt/sources.list, will everything automatically
get upgraded to the backports version if I do
aptitude update
aptitude upgrade
? I don't see anything in /etc/apt to stop this. I'd like to be able to have some
control over which packages I get from backports.
Or am I better off from a security perspective to always get backports updates for
everything?
