Strange indeed. Update, so I have found, is only one pass. Upgrade is also only one pass, unless you do apt-get dist-upgrade after upgrade. That will often bring in new packages or want to remove some. If your bandwidth drops out or is particularly slow you might need to upgrade a couple of times, but you should get a message that the server wasn't found or lost etc.. I have never had your problem? But then things might have changed recently, and I don't have to install any Debian system for anyone at the moment so can't test it. Have you tried a different mirror? I sometimes need to do that because there is work being done on the one I use and it delivers an error message telling me that the packages aren't signed? Or just wait. Otherwise my apologies for I have no idea what else might be the matter. Hope you can resolve it or someone who actually has some idea about what's causing this speaks up.
