Upgrading symfony to 3.0 - bad distribution-bundle version

Question

I'm trying to upgrade from symfony 2.7 to 3.0. I made my code deprecation-free and updated composer.json with new packages versions according to this one. When I start upgrade with command: composer update --with-dependencies symfony/symfony it gives me error as follow:

Your requirements could not be resolved to an installable set of packages.

  Problem 1
    - The requested package sensio/distribution-bundle == 4.0.4.0 could not be found.
  Problem 2
    - The requested package sensio/generator-bundle == 2.5.3.0 could not be found.

Potential causes:
 - A typo in the package name
 - The package is not available in a stable-enough version according to your minimum-stability setting
   see <https://groups.google.com/d/topic/composer-dev/_g3ASeIFlrc/discussion> for more details.

Read <https://getcomposer.org/doc/articles/troubleshooting.md> for further common problems.

I have no idea from where are coming these strange versions of that two packages. My composer.json looks like:

{
    "name": "symfony/framework-standard-edition",
    "license": "MIT",
    "type": "project",
    "description": "The \"Symfony Standard Edition\" distribution",
    "autoload": {
        "psr-0": { "": "src/", "SymfonyStandard": "app/" }
    },
    "require": {
        "php": ">=5.5.9",
        "symfony/symfony": "3.0.*",

    },

    },
    "scripts": {

            "SymfonyStandard\\Composer::hookRootPackageInstall"
        ],
        "post-install-cmd": [

            "Sensio\\Bundle\\DistributionBundle\\Composer\\ScriptHandler::installRequirementsFile",
            "Sensio\\Bundle\\DistributionBundle\\Composer\\ScriptHandler::removeSymfonyStandardFiles"
        ],
        "post-update-cmd": [

            "Sensio\\Bundle\\DistributionBundle\\Composer\\ScriptHandler::installAssets",
            "Sensio\\Bundle\\DistributionBundle\\Composer\\ScriptHandler::installRequirementsFile",
            "Sensio\\Bundle\\DistributionBundle\\Composer\\ScriptHandler::removeSymfonyStandardFiles"
        ]
    },
    "config": {
        "bin-dir": "bin"
    },
    "extra": {
        "symfony-app-dir": "app",
        "symfony-web-dir": "web",

        },
        "branch-alias": {
            "dev-master": "3.0-dev"
        },
        "symfony-assets-install": "symlink"
    }
}

I can't see where I made a mistake, any suggestions?

Edit:

Executing just composer update instead of composer update --with-dependencies symfony/symfony seems to solve problem, all packages updates successfully, by after that, it shows:

[RuntimeException]
An error occurred when executing the "'cache:clear --no-warmup'" command:
Fatal error: Class 'Symfony\Component\Console\Input\ArgvInput' not found in /home/wombat/htdocs/gugupanel/app/console on line 17

Here is a composer.json that almost matches yours which works for me.
