Maybe there is an APT::Default-Release option set in your apt.conf?
 
Also, it may be worth having deb entries listed for both testing and stable.

Subject: [SLUG] Debian sources.list problem.

Hi All.
 
I am having some issues with changing my sources.list from a stable environment to a testing environment under Linux.  I have change the value stable to testing and when I run aptitude update, it complains that it cannot find the package files.  If I revert the change, everything works fine.  I am removing the security line out of the source.list file when I switch over to the testing environment.
 
Is their some hidden command or switch that I have to use to refresh the package database?
 
I have used:
 
aptitude update
apt-get update
 
Regards
Sean
