Was that just missed in the cut-n-paste? But it is important information. On first pass it would seem that almost any upgrade in unstable would want to upgrage at least one package and therefore it must just be missing from your post. I would look over that list of packages and see which of them is pulling in emacs20 and pushing out gnupg and other such dependencies. Bob
