Hello Michael,

I gave it a try. I unplugged the network and did an apt-get update. This 
is throwing all the errors that the repos are not available. But in the 
end the next "apt-get dist-upgrade" indeed wants to update all packages 
to testing.

So it seems that this is an issue with network not ready while apt-get 
update is being performed.

How do I fix this? Where to look?

And thank you for the hint, Michael.
Matthias
