The correct archives to be using are:

non-free deb http://debian-amd64.alioth.debian.org/debian-pure64 sarge
main contrib non-free

Thanks for that confirmation. But I am getting dependency problems which
others have reported at various times. No problems on my other 32 bit
machine, just my new amd64.

If your problem persists more than a day or two, however, sound off and someone will look into it. If you'll look back through the archives you'll see that these things happen from time to time but always are resolved quickly. :-)

I didn't see the resolutions in those earlier postings :-) But perhaps they went silent when things cleared.

But this:-
------------------------------------------------
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
    libc6-dev: Depends: libc6 (= 2.3.2.ds1-20) but
   2.3.2.ds1-20.0.0.1.pure64 is to be installed
--------------------------------------------------

does seem to occur very often and is a bit of a show-stopper when one is trying to compile or rebuild components :) I can force it with dpkg but then it just gets removed again if I use any of the standard apt-get/aptitude/.. tools which is decidedly cumbersome...

I did check the debs in the pools on various mirrors and those packages seemed to be quite old with no recent changes.

But I will be patient...

Thanks for the reply
