Comment out (or delete) the above entry. It is the original Wheezy install CD. You don't need it if you're upgrading to testing. > deb http://mirror.its.dal.ca/debian/ testing main contrib non-free > deb-src http://mirror.its.dal.ca/debian/ testing main contrib non-free > > deb http://security.debian.org/ testing/updates main contrib non-free > deb-src http://security.debian.org/ testing/updates main contrib > non-free > > # testing-updates, previously known as 'volatile' > deb http://mirror.its.dal.ca/debian/ testing-updates main contrib > non-free deb-src http://mirror.its.dal.ca/debian/ testing-updates > main contrib non-free Also, if your intent is to upgrade to testing/Jessie, enter "jessie" instead of "testing" in those sources lists; otherwise, when Jessie becomes Stable, you will continue upgrading with the NEW testing release. Some doing this, so they have the more current release files like a Rolling Release without having to use backports.
