OK, I should have compared the outputs from dpkg -l more thoroughly.
For example,
peter@dalton:~$ dpkg -l iceweasel | grep ice
ii  iceweasel  12.0-7~bpo60+1  Web browser based on Firefox

whereas,
peter@armada:~$ dpkg -l iceweasel | grep ice
rc  iceweasel  3.5.16-15  Web browser based on Firefox
.

Also I'd forgotten about,
peter@dalton:~$ grep back /etc/apt/sources.list
deb http://backports.debian.org/debian-backports squeeze-backports main
deb http://mozilla.debian.net/ squeeze-backports iceweasel-release

and there are no such entries in armada.  After these lines are added
to armada:/etc/apt/sources.list, aptitude declines to update iceweasel 
claiming that the source is untrusted.  Months back I must have "fixed" 
aptitude configuration in dalton to allow "untrusted sources" and 
forgotten about "that little detail".  Is there a straightforward way to 
deal with this?

Thanks,           ... Peter E.
