backports-core

/etc/apt/sources.list
for input and generate the
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/backports.list
output. It has the capability to parse
the upstream codename
, url
, and the releases
and smartly generate the
backports statements.
The program will call apt-get update
so an internet connection is needed.
