OK. I did that and thought it would be a good idea to run an # apt-get update .. so everything is in sync (?) and this is what I'm getting: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ apt-get update Get:1 http://security.debian.org stable/updates Release.gpg [189B] Hit http://security.debian.org stable/updates Release Ign http://security.debian.org stable/updates/main Packages/DiffIndex Ign http://security.debian.org stable/updates/contrib Packages/DiffIndex Hit http://security.debian.org stable/updates/main Packages Hit http://security.debian.org stable/updates/contrib Packages Get:2 http://mirror.pacific.net.au stable Release.gpg [386B] Hit http://mirror.pacific.net.au stable Release Ign http://mirror.pacific.net.au stable/main Packages/DiffIndex Ign http://mirror.pacific.net.au stable/contrib Packages/DiffIndex Ign http://mirror.pacific.net.au stable/main Sources/DiffIndex Ign http://mirror.pacific.net.au stable/contrib Sources/DiffIndex Hit http://mirror.pacific.net.au stable/main Packages Hit http://mirror.pacific.net.au stable/contrib Packages Hit http://mirror.pacific.net.au stable/main Sources Hit http://mirror.pacific.net.au stable/contrib Sources Fetched 2B in 17s (0B/s) Reading package lists...
