I must be misunderstanding something here, because AFAIK source packages 
don't really care about my *binary* arch. On the mirrors there are 
'binary-amd64', 'binary-i386 directories', but only one 'source' 
directory. Which also explains why this works:

$ LANG=C apt-get source python-twisted

Ok, this I understood :)

Based also on you previous paragraph it would mean that some binary 
package built from the source 'twisted' has not been built on amd64 
(yet). Let's see...
...
Oh, it seems the Maintainer uploaded 10.1.0-2 today and I'm unable to 
find the build status for 10.1.0-1 anymore, but according to 
packages.debian.org the culprits seem to be python-twisted-bin and 
python-twisted-bin-dbg and indeed, they are missing from the mirror. 

Thanks for the explanation, +1 informative ;)

Andrei

Thanks, I see.  The problem is that the twisted source package (which
builds the python-twisted binary package) has not been uploaded yet on
amd64, and even though python-twisted is an arch:all package, it is kept
at the old version.

Previously, an arch:all package was in sync on all arches, but since
that often created uninstallabilities when foo (arch:any) depended on
foo-common (arch:all) of the same source version and foo was not built
yet, the ftp-masters changed that.

In this case this has the undesirable side effect that packages from a
_different_ source package depend on the new version of
python-twisted-core, making them uninstallable on amd64.

Which architecture is that?  On i386, I only see 10.1.0-1 in the latest
Packages.bz2 from ftp.at.debian.org.

Scratch that, I have the exact same issue. packages.debian.org shows 
10.1.0-1 for python-twisted and I can even download it from 
ftp.at.debian.org (via packages.debian.org), but if I try aptitude with 
the same mirror I still get the old version.

I downloaded Packages.bz2 and Packages.gz with Iceweasel and indeed it 
is still showing 10.0.0-3. This means it is either the mirror (but I

So, as of this email, this is where I stand. I'm Debian Sid on AMD64, but I
have access to Debian Testing's packages when things get a little nutty. Like
here. It's a fine workaround, but the problem still exists. With that in mind,
now is the time for me to make some replies.

This is why I use Debian Sid. I can identify with it.

As for the ticketing, I might do that later. I'm allright with making an utter
fool of myself on debian-user, but the actual BTS? I'm not smart enough for
that right now. Hell, I'm not really even smart enough for Debian Unstable.

Nope, no unofficial packaged installed. Everything is stock sid stuff, with
the caveat of the workaround described above. No advanced apt ninja trickery
here.

Do you have unofficial packages installed? I have those exact packages

Some tips:

- Are you behind a proxy? Maybe your ISP is somehow caching data or 
reading the old one :-?

- Are you using some pinning/restrictions/rules for packages?

- Try with another mirror from where to get the data or give "apt-get
