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
update" a chance.

Do you have unofficial packages installed? I have those exact packages
on hold now because of vodafone-mobile-connect from betavine.

Please post the output of 'apt-cache policy python-twisted-core'.

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
tried several already) or something else. Can somebody please confirm
this in order to exclude ISP problems?

Andrei
