What does 'Lock Version' do?
- by richzilla
Having installed an experimental version of dropbox and installed in manually, i dont want the deb in synaptic to download any updates (as theyll over write the changes ive done manually i assume).
Ive found the lock version option in synaptic, im assuming this stops a particular deb from downloading any new versions of itself?
Also can i just unlock it again when the version from the deb catches up with the experimental version that i have installed?
Am i correct or does it serve another function?
