Because there is no kernel-ide package under /testing/.  As you have the kernel-ide package
installed, it will attempt to upgrade it when it's not excluded, --ignore-excludes is used, or
you specify it with --install.

The kernel-modules package is being pulled from testing as that is the most up to date version
of the package.  Exclude it, or specify which version you want with --install
kernel-modules-2.4.29-i486-1 .


take care,
