Jan 19, 2018 at 20:52 comment added Stephen Kitt @Pierre policy was short-hand for the full command I’d asked, sorry. It’s still very surprising since plain Stretch has the package too, so it should appear there in apt policy libreoffice-sdbc-firebird, with a newer version than the one you have (1:4.3.3-2+deb8u9).
Jan 19, 2018 at 20:45 comment added Pierre B @StephenKitt: that's only the output of apt-cache policy libreoffice-sdbc-firebird, not apt-cache policy . But things are running well now.

Jan 19, 2018 at 20:37 comment added Stephen Kitt That output from policy is only possible if you no longer have any repositories active in sources.list.
Jan 19, 2018 at 20:37 comment added Stephen Kitt Are you sure that’s all the output of apt policy? You should at least have an entry for stretch-backports (well, you would have had before you commented that line out in sources.list), and an entry for stretch... Actually it would be useful if you could add the contents of your sources.list file to the question.
Jan 19, 2018 at 20:35 comment added Pierre B @GAD3R: in source.list I had deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian stretch-backports main contrib, for virtualbox. I have commented out this line now.

Jan 19, 2018 at 20:28 comment added GAD3R Please add the output of cat /etc/apt/sources.list the package seem to be installed initially from Wheezy backports.
