Do you see testing/woody Packages files being downloaded during the update? Example sources.list: deb http://security.debian.org stable/updates main contrib non-free # deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian stable main contrib non-free # deb http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US stable/non-US main contrib non-free deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian testing main contrib non-free deb http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US testing/non-US main contrib non-free Also see if you have an /etc/apt/preferences file. If you didn't put it there, you shouldn't have one. $ cat /etc/apt/preferences Package: * Pin: release stable Pin-Priority: 600 Package: * Pin: release testing Pin-Priority: 700 Package: * Pin: release unstable Pin-Priority: 80 $ Highest priority over 100 wins. Going over 1000 means it can downgrade packages. See 'man apt_preferences' or posts I made to debian-users 5 or 6 months ago for more info on how to use preferences. If you setup preferences properly you can leave all three uncommented in sources.list. That's what I do. ciao, der.hans -- # http://home.pages.de/~lufthans/ http://www..com/ # Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty. -- Thomas Jefferson
