If you have all three version in sources.list (which you do) apt will always install the newest version possible. For running pure unstable you don't really need any pinning. > There are mistakes in my configuration? What do you suggest me to get > the latest versions of packages without hard problems? Run lenny (stable) and install new packages only from backports.org. Follow the instructions from there. This is a bit late now, because you already upgraded to unstable :/ You shouldn't be running unstable if you don't know how to solve issues like this. Right now probably the best course of action would be to set APT::Default-Release "testing"; and stick with that. Testing is not soooo much behind unstable and should be a bit more usable.
