Can't upgrade from woody to sarge (sources.list problem?)
I have Debian installed on my xbox. It's Xebian 1.01, or something like
that. As nearly as I can tell, it's exactly the same as woody except
that the kernel is a 2.4 kernel with xbox patches, and a backported
version of XFree86 4.3.0, and some customized configuration files.
xbox:/# cat /etc/debian_version
3.0
xbox:/# gcc -v
Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-linux/2.95.4/specs
gcc version 2.95.4 20011002 (Debian prerelease)
Anyway, my point being that I'm pretty sure it's almost pure woody and
looks a lot more like a customized Debian than a derived distribution.
So, my sources list looks like this:
deb-src http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ sarge main non-free contrib
deb http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US sarge/non-US main contrib
non-free
deb-src http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US sarge//non-US main
contrib non-free
deb http://security.debian.org/ sarge/updates main contrib non-free
deb ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat/ sarge main
deb-src http://perso.wanadoo.fr/debian/ unstable main
Then I type:
xbox:/# apt-get update
[snip]
Hit http://ftp.us.debian.org sarge/main Release
[snip]
xbox:/# echo $?
0
(In other words, everything appears successful.)
xbox:/# apt-get dist-upgrade

The following packages have been kept back

2 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 4 not upgraded.
Need to get 1145kB of archives. After unpacking 4096B will be freed.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n]
I expected that a lot more packages would need upgrading (like, say,
gcc).
How can I upgrade? I don't want to mess with the kernel package, so I
guess I should pin it or something. There might be some configuration
file holding everything in place.
