I changed sources.list to point only to sid, then apt-get clean, then
apt-get update, apt-get -u dist-upgrade. /etc/debian_version and
/etc/issue still say I have 9.0. Can held back non-essential packages
stonewall a dist-upgrade? mc and mc-lang 4.8.17 have been held back by
me manually because 4.8.18 is broken. Is this why I don't seem to have
sid?
sid doesn't have a version number
stretch and sid both use the same base-file package, so
/etc/debian_version is the same
