Description
The APT package installation Technique does not handle installations from the backports, we would need to add this possibility to the Technique (hint: update the package method used by this Technique to use "aptitude/apt-get -t <distro>" by default and leave the possibility to the user to specify for example squeeze-backports instead.)

There's a nice package_method in cfengine_stdlib.cf that will undoubtedly help with this: body package_method apt_get_release(release), see https://github.com/cfengine/core/blob/master/masterfiles/lib/3.5/packages.cf#L172.
