Hello Steve,

Yes, as Hendrik wrote, I thought it is quite obvious that you should not
use any other repositories a part from wheezy if you would like to stay
on wheezy.

I used wheezy-backports as well until a few weeks ago. But after I
downgraded all packages to wheezy, I use only the following repositories
on my /etc/apt/source.list:

deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ wheezy main non-free contrib
deb http://security.debian.org/ wheezy/updates main contrib non-free

Cheers,

Anto
