Maybe I should set LANG to en_US.UTF-8 to be sure I'm not missing something.Verify that you have "wheezy" not "testing" in your /etc/apt/sources.list
file.Checked that. That's where I started on the upgrade.Did you remember to 'apt-get update'?Always do, I'm pretty sure the upgrade would not have proceeded without it.What is the output of:
apt-cache policy debian-archive-keyringHand copying since that's faster than mailing it to myself from the other machine:

called "foo". What is the output of 'apt-cache policy foo'?
