deb http://debian.csail.mit.edu/debian-amd64/debian-amd64 sarge main
The /pool/main is not meant for that. That part is handled by the
filenames in Packages.gz
You might also want:
deb http://debian.csail.mit.edu/debian-amd64/debian-amd64 sarge-unsupported main
For things that required patches to build, which were not accepted by
debian main for various reasons.
