You obviously have successfully upgraded at some point! That leaves rather
few potential explanations other than that you are now fully upgraded.
Could you run apt-get update followed by apt-get dist-upgrade and post what
you get? Also it is worth posting the present state of
your /etc/network/interfaces file. That just _might_ give us some clues!
