Potato is newer.

if you want to get potato.

edit your /etc/apt/sources.list
 so that it contains only the lines

deb http://ftp1.us.debian.org/debian potato main contrib non-free
deb http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US potato non-US/main non-US/contrib 
non-US/non-free

Comment out any other deb lines.

then as, root,

apt-get update
apt-get install apt debconf
apt-get dist-upgrade
