Hello,

Unfortunately there isn't enough information in this report to take
any action on our part; could you give a bit more information about 
what you were trying to do, particularly with those low-level commands?)

I'm going to take a wild guess that you have an out-dated wheezy
installation from before wheezy was released and want to update it.
If so, please post the full command-line, and output, of the aptitude
command (presuambly aptitude upgrade?) which resulted in the problems
you saw.

Dominic.
