Right.  The Lenny volatile repository was renamed for Squeeze.  In
Squeeze it is squeeze-updates.  (Confusingly because squeeze-updates
is the volatile repository and squeeze/updates is the security
repository.)

That is incorrect and the source of your problems.  Remove those
lines.  Add these lines:

deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian squeeze-updates main
deb-src http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian squeeze-updates main
