apt

I'm using saucy:

~: lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description:    Ubuntu 13.10
Release:        13.10
Codename:       saucy

but when I do sudo apt-get update ubuntu still looks at the raring:

Hit http://ppa.launchpad.net raring/main amd64 Packages
Hit http://ppa.launchpad.net raring/main i386 Packages

That's strange...

I definetely don't have in /etc/apt/sources.list, but there's a lot of raring stuff in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/. How do I remove it? (I think it longers my updates)

I know about pinning packages with APT; that's not what I want to do. Other questions have been answered with either using pinning or by using pins temporarily. I don't want to do this... What I want to do is keep packages back the same way the kernel has been: # apt-get upgrade Reading package… >>> More
