Debian Jessie Won't Update

[sg4rb0]

My version of Debian is Jessie, and I'm using sabnzbd 6.15. My couchpotato is now complaining that my version of Sabnzbd is too old.

:~$ sabnzbdplus --version

sabnzbdplus-0.6.15


The method I used to update it was this:
sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list

###add the line below at the bottom of the file
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/jcfp/ppa/ubuntu trusty main

###update the system
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade


The upgrade caught something new, but didn't upgrade Sabnzbd, see below.

At the end of it, I'm still on the same version.

you need apt-get dist-upgrade rather than just upgrade. See the apt-get manpage for the difference.

Edit: before you proceed, be sure about your debian version. Jessie comes with sab 0.7.18, not 0.6.15; the latter suggests you're actually using wheezy. For that, the closest ubuntu equivalent release isn't trusty but precise, also see here!
