Can't apt-get the newest relase of a package
Hi,
I am currently using Knoppix 5.0.1, HD install.
I am trying to install Krita 1.5.1, but when I apt-get it, I can only install version 1.4.2. I apt-get updated my list, but there is no way I can get 1.5.1 version.
I am quite new to linux, and I am still studying how the apt-get works. I have read the apt-get/dpkg tutorial on this forum, and also man apt-get, and I still don't understand what I am supposed to do in order to install the version I want of a package.
this is my apt-cache policy krita
Code:
mmanu@scatoletta:~$ apt-cache policy krita
krita:
Installed: 1:1.4.2-7
Candidate: 1:1.4.2-7
Version table:
1:1.5.1-1 0
500 http://ftp.de.debian.org unstable/main Packages
*** 1:1.4.2-7 0
990 http://ftp.de.debian.org testing/main Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
As far as I understand, version 1.5.1 is already in the repositories, but the only package suitable for my system is the 1.4.2.
Now, what am I supposed to do in order to install the 1.5.1? Do I have to run an apt-get upgrade?
Thanks for your time.
