Debian Backports Question
by jjhanger from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6PCTY)
Feel like is something I should know but I've only recently started put the Backports into my sources list so got a quick question about Backports usage. Say I find an update in the Backports of a program I use in Stable and want to use the newer version in Backports.
Does installing it from the Backports automatically remove the version in Stable? If not, I'm assuming it would be best practice to remove the program in Stable before installing from the Backports correct?
