I tried but it only wanted to upgrade the kernel.

Did you do an 'apt-get dist-upgrade' after changing the sources? Not sure
if this is still required but I remember having to do it when changing
releases around the Potato days.

I replaced:
deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian sarge main
deb http://security.debian.org/ stable/updates main
with:
deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian stable m
Let's start with this:
what does your /etc/apt/sources.list look like?
what does /etc/debian_version say?
what was the release of Debian that was originally installed on this
system?
I am guessing that you have 'stable' or 'testing' in your sources.list
-- as opposed to potato/sarge/etch -- but
I am trying to upgrade an old system that is broken. :-(
I get stuff like this for lots of packages:
dpkg: serious warning: files list file for package `readline-common'
missing, assuming package has no files currently installed.
apt-get is broken and I installed
gnupg_1.4.6-2_i386.deb with dpkg
10 matches
