[Installation] Can't upgrade to Sid. Error: pkgProblem Resolver::Resolve generated breaks.
I'm new to Linux and I have basically no knowledge about it, so please be patient.
I've been using Debian on this device for a few weeks, but I still had Windows installed as the primary OS. This Debian installation worked fine, I was able to upgrade from stable to SID without issues. Then, the (very small) partition I had installed it in, ran out of space, so I decided to format the entire disk and install Debian again, on a much larger partition. The installation went smoothly, but when I modify the sources.list to include the SID sources, then, when I enter the dist-upgrade command, it shows an error.
I realized this happens only with the modified version of sources.list, when I run the same command with the default file, it works fine, although there is nothing to upgrade for obvious reasons. Is there any reason why that happens? Am I doing something wrong? How should I even correctly modify the sources.list file?
