Hi there,
While I was configuring some thing in the sources.list file as apt-get
couldn't get any package I wanted or asked for (I double checked the

You can search for packages here:
http://www.debian.org/distrib/packages
any way, The problem is that the sources.list file was accidentally deleted
It's useful to make copies of original configuration files before
editing them:
# cp /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list-orig
# vi /etc/apt/sources.list
Better yet is putting them into a version control system.

Somebody already posted a Jessie file. Here's my Wheezy file:
$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list
