do I have to have any references to stable or testing in my apt-sources?
I'm getting this error:
E: Release 'testing' for 'aptitude' was not found
W: An error occurred trying to use the 'install' command.
another question on the side is there any problem with aptitude at the
moment?
It apears to be broken on my:
aptitude: Depends: libapt-pkg-libc6.2-3-2-3.2 but it is not installable
Depends: libsigc++0 but it is not installable
E: Broken packages
