It shouldn't complain about that -- it should download them.  Which
package(s) does it complain on?

(And you wont be able to do the full dance just yet, because of a
silly bug in dak which unaccepts new udebs. :( )

Now that we have a sarge -> sid symlink for d-i, I'll clean up the
patches and submit them for review (they are a bit too big for me
being comfortable just checking them in).
