You're wrong.

Probably because you're using an older version of procps. The
difference is between 2:3.3.9-9 and 2:3.3.10-2 (which recently entered
Debian testing).
The older version of free has a "-/+ buffers/cache" line, and the Free
entry in the "-/+ buffer/cache" line is equivalent to the available
line. So you're version of free looks like this:
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 15G 7.1G 8.2G 421M 303M 1.6G
-/+ buffers/cache: 5.2G ===> 10G <===
Swap: 0B 0B 0B
