Would here be a good location for a very simple primer on what to put in
sources.list? If so, and [1] holds true, a very crude suggestion, after
the above-quoted paragraph:

---8<---
If you are already using the backports.org service, replace all
occurrences of 'backports.org' with 'backports.debian.org' in
"/etc/apt/sources.list".
--->8---

[1] I assume s,backports.org,backports.debian.org,g would suffice?
