Hi Guido,

I'm running Debian testing but I'd like to try gnome-shell 3.8.

Would you know which packages to give priority to, in order to install it
from experimental?
Naively I've tried the following /etc/apt/preferences, but aptitude cannot
figure out
how to make dependencies meet.

Thanks anyway,
Carlo.

Pin: release a=experimental
Pin-Priority: 1100

Package: *
