Yes, you right. My mistake.RU55EL wrote:My point is that Jessie will begin using the Stretch repositories when Stretch becomes oldstable, creating frankendebian. It is best to use the name of the Debian version rather than the release version. If you are running Jessie that is what you should use in your sources.list, rather than oldstable, which will change to a different version in time.

Re: Can't install "vim"
Should you mix Debian 7 and 8? NO. You already have mixed at least one package from 7 into 8, and are now the proud owner of a broken FrankenDebian. You have already seen that your system is broken because of that. You need to first discover why you have this mess on a "fresh" install of 8, and don't repeat whatever caused the mixing in the first place. It's best to go back to the beginning and do a fresh reinstall.
I'm only familiar with running Debian VMs in Virtual Box. Do you have to use VMware?

Re: Can't install "vim"
I have never used VirtualBox, and neither have I had any problem with VMWare until now. I think the best will be begin with a fresh install, as you say.stevepusser wrote:Should you mix Debian 7 and 8? NO.
