I need to keep a specific package at a specific version on one
machine. I know about Synaptic's "Lock Version" feature, I am looking
for something similar for apt-get. From googling I see that this is
called "pinning" however I only find information on how to pin the
packages of a particular repo, not on a per-package basis. How is this
done? Thanks.
