I used to run the machine with testing but changed that to squeeze
before it became stable. I currently have:

s:/etc/apt# grep -v ^# sources.list
deb  ftp://debian.sil.at/debian/ lenny main non-free contrib
deb  ftp://debian.sil.at/debian/ squeeze main non-free contrib
deb-src  ftp://debian.sil.at/debian/ squeeze main non-free contrib
deb  ftp://debian.sil.at/debian/ unstable main non-free contrib
deb http://security.debian.org/ testing/updates main contrib non-free

s:/etc/apt# cat apt.conf
APT::Default-Release "squeeze";

aptitude dist-upgrade produces an error with package emacsen-common.

I have. There is no deb-src entry for unstable. Do I need to remove the
deb unstable entry or is APT::Default-Release "squeeze"; enough?
