Re: My confusion about lenny and sid



Okay.
This is my sources.list
deb http://security.debian.org/ etch/updates main
deb-src http://security.debian.org/ etch/updates main
deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ stable main non-free contrib

I updated my system 2 days back.

When did you do the last upgrade? What's in your sources.list?

I have "5.0" on a lenny system and "squeeze/sid" on sid. The file
belongs to the package base-files. Which version of base-files do you
have installed (apt-cache-policy base-files)?

/etc/debian_version can only give you a rough idea about that. It is
mostly meant for scripts.
