Re: sarge(testing) dist-upgrade problem?
Fixed it. Ran an upgrade via aptitude which installed a few packages but removed none. Now apt-get dist-upgrade thinks everything's up to date. Must have been some dependency glitch.

Below is output from apt-get update and the first part of the output from
apt-get -s dist-upgrade.
Anyone know if this is a problem with the distribution? Or am I missing
something? I ran an update and dist-upgrade last night without these
showing up.
TIA for your help.
