noroot@f555l:~$ lsb_release -sirc
Debian
6.0.10
squeeze

I added second section to my lonely preferences file

noroot@f555l:~$ cat /etc/apt/preferences.d/baobab
Package: baobab
Pin: version 2.*
Pin-Priority: 1001

Package: *
Pin: release o=Debian,n=squeeze
Pin-Priority: 1

And it works better now
noroot@f555l:~$ lsb_release -sirc
Debian
unstable
sid
noroot@f555l:~$ screenfetch -n
 noroot@f555l
 OS: Debian unstable sid
 Kernel: x86_64 Linux 4.8.0-5.2-liquorix-amd64

Can that string (optionally) be taken from hostnameclt(for systemd users)
or something like that to avoid wrong apt/preferences configuration?

Thank you!
Best regards,
Dmitri

Hi,

 Thanks for the log, it runs "lsb_release -sirc" and it returns your
 system is squeeze.

 lsb-release package probably detects your system as squeeze due to
 apt policy setting. Could you show me "apt-cache policy | grep release"?

Bug#842264: Wrong OS version detected

[Трезвый Дворник]

Package: screenfetch
Version: 3.7.0-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

Screenfetch is detecing wrong Debian version:

noroot@f555l:~$ cat /etc/issue.net
Debian GNU/Linux stretch/sid
noroot@f555l:~$ cat /etc/debian_version
stretch/sid
noroot@f555l:~$ hostnamectl
   Static hostname: f555l
 Icon name: computer-laptop
   Chassis: laptop
Machine ID: ee00ecaab4a748a298b0302da8de6639
   Boot ID: 467d104cd4d846eca1ca0830a95e970f
  Operating System: Debian GNU/Linux stretch/sid
Kernel: Linux 4.8.0-4.1-liquorix-amd64
  Architecture: x86-64
noroot@f555l:~$ screenfetch -n
 noroot@f555l
 OS: Debian 6.0.10 squeeze
 Kernel: x86_64 Linux 4.8.0-4.1-liquorix-amd64
 Uptime: 1h 7m

Maybe I have something wrong (installed several packages from snapshots:
aptitude versions '~i' | awk -vRS= '{if ($6 !~ /[^0-9]/) {$6="unknown"}
print $3, $2, $5, $6}'|grep -w oldoldstable
i baobab: oldoldstable unknown
i freepats: 20060219-1 oldoldstable,testing,unstable
i gnome-mime-data: 2.18.0-1 oldoldstable,testing,unstable
i gnome-utils-common: 2.30.0-2 oldoldstable
i laptop-detect: oldoldstable,testing,unstable unknown
i libclass-accessor-perl: 0.34-1 oldoldstable,testing,unstable
i libcue1: oldoldstable,testing,unstable unknown
i libfile-copy-recursive-perl: 0.38-1 oldoldstable,testing,unstable
i libfont-afm-perl: 1.20-1 oldoldstable,testing,unstable
i libgtop2-7: 2.28.1-1 oldoldstable
i libhtml-tagset-perl: 3.20-2 oldoldstable,testing,unstable
i libmail-sendmail-perl: 0.79.16-1 oldoldstable,testing,unstable
i libstring-escape-perl: oldoldstable,testing,unstable unknown
i recordmydesktop: oldoldstable,testing,unstable unknown
),
but i can not detect from where is taken the "Debian 6.0.10 squeeze"
string.

Best regards,
Dmitri
