Well, I removed the old entries. The problem is clearly introduced by the new entries.
Interestingly, although the packages provided by Sarge and Etch should theoretically be the same, they behave differently. I tried this with diff, which is one of the about 20 packages affected on my system: 1. XXXXXXXX~# aptitude -t stable -syvDV install diff ... The following packages have been kept back: ... The following packages will be upgraded: diff [2.8.1-11 -> 2.8.1-11] 1 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 22 not upgraded. Need to get 0B/190kB of archives. After unpacking 0B will be used. Inst diff [2.8.1-11] (2.8.1-11 Debian AMD64 archive:3.1r0/stable) Conf diff (2.8.1-11 Debian AMD64 archive:3.1r0/stable) 2. XXXXXXXX~# aptitude -t testing -syvDV install diff ... The following NEW packages will be automatically installed: tzdata [2006c-2] (D: libc6) The following packages will be automatically REMOVED: base-config [2.53.10-0.0.0.1.pure64] (C: locales) The following packages have been kept back: ... The following NEW packages will be installed: tzdata [2006c-2] The following packages will be REMOVED: base-config [2.53.10-0.0.0.1.pure64] The following packages will be upgraded: diff [2.8.1-11 -> 2.8.1-11] libc6 [2.3.2.ds1-22 -> 2.3.6-7] libc6-dev [2.3.2.ds1-22 -> 2.3.6-7] locales [2.3.2.ds1-22 -> 2.3.6-7] 4 packages upgraded, 1 newly installed, 1 to remove and 448 not upgraded. Need to get 10.6MB of archives. After unpacking 8086kB will be freed. Remv base-config (2.53.10-0.0.0.1.pure64 Debian AMD64 archive:3.1r0/stable) Inst tzdata (2006c-2 Debian:testing) Inst libc6-dev [2.3.2.ds1-22] (2.3.6-7 Debian:testing) [] Inst locales [2.3.2.ds1-22] (2.3.6-7 Debian:testing) [] Inst libc6 [2.3.2.ds1-22] (2.3.6-7 Debian:testing) Conf tzdata (2006c-2 Debian:testing) Conf libc6 (2.3.6-7 Debian:testing) Inst diff [2.8.1-11] (2.8.1-11 Debian:testing) Conf diff (2.8.1-11 Debian:testing) Conf libc6-dev (2.3.6-7 Debian:testing) Conf locales (2.3.6-7 Debian:testing) So, we have the same package with different dependencies when installed via Sarge and Etch?
