Bug Description
I recently installed Linux Mint Debian Edition on my laptop. There are a few packages I wanted that were available in Debian Unstable but not in Testing (and therefore not in LMDE). I added the Unstable repository to my sources.list and set up apt to prefer the "testing" version. All was well and good as apt and synaptic behave as you would expect, but mint-update now tries to upgrade all of my packages to the Unstable versions.
