Description
The file http://qgis.org/debian/dists/stable/Release contains the line
Suite: testingeven though it is in the 'stable' directory, and it also has the line
Codename: jessiewhere 'jessie' has been 'stable' since April. The packages associated with this dist all seem to have been built for stable/Jessie rather than testing/Stretch, so I assume that it's only the Suite line that is incorrect.
This causes problems when you try to add the QGIS repository on a Debian stable/Jessie system, since you can't actually install any of the packages from the repository without telling apt-get to allow 'testing' packages.
Similarly, http://qgis.org/debian/dists/oldstable/Release has the line
Suite: stablewhich should probable be oldstable instead.
The same thing seems to have happened after the Debian Wheezy release 2 years ago (#8649)
