There is not enough detail here, but it is probably something to do with the 
fact that you have jessie backports in your sources list.  If you stick to 
Jessie, and only Jessie, things won't break after updating to a newer 
version.  In fact, things normally won't update to a newer version.  
Basically, Stabel only gets security updates.

I personally have never had a problem with backports, but you don't say how 
you are using backpprts or how you have got them pinned.  And have you any 
packages installed from tarballs, or otherwise not in Debian's repos?

You might want to sort out your security repos.
