                            Yes you can but that is a Linux Mint problem
                            and not a Ubuntu problem. Linux Mint use
                            Pin-Priority to lock out what it considers
                            unstable or experimental packages sources.
                            This is used in Debian too to hold back
                            packages in stable from installing packages
                            from Debian unstable or experimental. Ubuntu
                            work a bit different with its release
                            cycles. Why Linux Mint do as it does I don't
                            know as it's based on Ubuntu otherwise and
                            I'm not that used to changing Pin-Priority
                            and Launchpad sources are listed as 500.<br>
                            <br>
                          </div>
                          I haven't tried it as I don't have to but try
                          to install digikam with apt-get and the -t
                          unstable parameter; "sudo apt-get -t unstable
                          install digikam". That might work on Linux
                          Mint and works on Debian if you want install
                          some special package from Debian unstable on
                          Debian stable and dependecies. If that doesn't
                          work I think you have to ask in the Linux Mint
                          community how they handled package sources
                          with higher Pin-Priority.<br>
