etch upgrade to lenny
I'm attempting to upgrade from Etch to Lenny, the new testing distro. Here is my sources.list:
deb file:/var/cache/apt-build/repository/ apt-build main deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ lenny main contrib deb http://security.debian.org/ lenny/updates main contrib I did this, but now whenever I boot up without GDM, I see "Debian GNU/Linux lenny/sid". What is going on? I am somewhat new to using repositories, so let me know if you see anything wrong with what I have above. I want to run testing, not unstable. Thanks in advance. |

If it's the latter try, ... # aptitude install xserver-xorg-core xserver-xorg xorg gdm gnome |
that's not the problem. The problem is I thought I should just be running lenny, not lenny/sid.
I'm using iceweasel right now, so X11 works fine. :) |
Sorry. I misunderstood the question.
lenny/sid just means that you have at least one application installed that you got from Sid (Unstable) |

It means that they changed from etch/sid to lenny/sid in the base-files package it has nothing to do with running packages from sid it is only the new naming scheme. Code:
base-files (4.0) unstable; urgency=low |

I'm sure it used to say testing/unstable then it was 4.0 for the etch freeze, now its lenny/sid. Don't remember it every being etch/sid...
