(Aside from the begin/end markers that aren't actually in the files)not in particular, however, as soon as you build anything but stable (or stable with proper backports), you can have any breakage at any time, depending on the state of the testing repos you're pinning. as you know, i prefere using backports. if you could elaborate why you need which and what for, we might find a solution (some of the packages you're pinning i already have in my own backports, you could use those instead).
I'm attempting to include newer versions of the packages related to font rendering and presentation. I don't like the default in Debian, so I'm configuring my distribution to render fonts more like Ubuntu does.
If these packages are available as backports I could definitely add them that way instead. I've never done that, but I'm certainly willing to learn!
One more detail: it fails with /just/ the wheezy.chroot file in place - no chroot-apt/preferences file. Sorry, I should have mentioned that before. It fails differently though: instead of the large list of packages to be installed, it only installs a minimal set:
