I'm running (from lsb-release -a): Description: Debian GNU/Linux 6.0.2 (squeeze) Release: 6.0.2 Codename: squeeze

I'm thinking of changing to Debian testing (aka wheezy at the moment).

my sources.list contains: deb http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity/debian squeeze main deb-src http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity/debian squeeze main deb http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity-builddeps/debian squeeze main deb-src http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity-builddeps/debian squeeze main

Questions: 1 Can I change to 'testing' (wheezy) and still use the existing trinity packages for 'squeeze', as above? I am, at present, quite happy with Trinity 3.5.12 2 Are there any 'unexpected consequences' of doing this? 3 If there are problems with this approach, what is a better way?

cheers

Some expected consequences: TDE is compiled for Squeeze, does not work well with Wheezy. The next releseof TDe will have Wheezy support.

You do not mention any compelling reasons/need to upgrade to Wheezy, personally I like Debian stable (up to v. 6.04), esp with regards to running TDE.
