That sounds (reads) like a temporary confusion due to mixed sources in
your sources.list and probably some apt-pinning, in combination with
'aptitude update' having failed to get some index files.

I'd re-run 'aptitude update' and check its output before attempting to
upgrade or install any packages. As soon as all index files can be
downloaded, the problem should disappear.
