Considering how your sources.list looked like there's a non-zero probability your system is in an inconsistent state due to packages from stretch-backports that shouldn't be there. The easiest way to find all installed packages from backports is to run aptitude search '?narrow(?installed,?archive(backports))' Yes, I know you wrote you don't trust 'aptitude', this is just a search :) Kind regards, Andrei -- http://wiki.debian.org/FAQsFromDebianUser
