Additional repositories I don't want to take over my system, I manage
with pins 100 <= P < 500, in the order of priority. The following
example allows me to have e.g. some packages from backports and some
from chimaera on my beowulf system, without having to edit the pins for
every newly installed "custom" version and its dependencies. Updates
and dependencies get installed as usual and the packages from backports
will not be upgraded to chimaera:

    Package: *
    Pin: release n=beowulf-backports
    Pin-Priority: 150

    
    Package: *
    Pin: release n=chimaera
    Pin-Priority: 140
