With a sources.list like yours, I would expect you are running a Sid system, is
Wheezy used at all?
A couple of things to check that determine what you are installiing with your
sources.
1. 'APT::Default Release' in '/etc/apt/apt.conf
2. An '/etc/apt/preferences' file will allow you to control what is
installed,rferedf to as 'apt pinning'
