Yes, i read about and googled it, but at you can used this to sync, is

first time when package states were out of sync in upgrades since slink.

The Debian package management system has a rich history and many choices
for the front end user program and back end archive access method to be
used. Currently, we recommend the following.
* apt-get(8) for all commandline operations, including package
installation and removal, and dist-upgrades.
* aptitude(8) for an interactive text interface to manage the
installed packages and to search the available packages.
* update-manager(8) for keeping your system up-to-date if you're
running the default GNOME desktop.
