What Debian release do you use?
I have these repositories
deb-src http://ftp.se.debian.org/debian/ jessie main contrib
deb http://ftp.se.debian.org/debian/ jessie main contrib
which sure looks like Jessie to me, but on the other
hand, with
cat /etc/os-release
I get
PRETTY_NAME="Debian GNU/Linux 7.0 (wheezy)"
NAME="Debian GNU/Linux"
VERSION_ID="7.0"
VERSION="7.0 (wheezy)"
ID=debian
ANSI_COLOR="1;31"
HOME_URL="http://www.debian.org/"
SUPPORT_URL="http://www.debian.org/support/"
BUG_REPORT_URL="http://bugs.debian.org/"
and with
lsb_release -a
I get
Distributor ID: Debian
Description: Debian GNU/Linux 7.0 (wheezy)
Release: 7.0
Codename: wheezy
But as for upgrading, aptitude uses those repositories
so in practice I should use Jessie (right?).
The reason I mention it is that Jessie should be more
sensitive to upgrades (naturally). Only upgrade when
you experience problems, or when you want to upgrade
one specific piece of software. Never upgrade
everything "just because". That's my piece of advice,
anyway.
