RE: 178 days and counting



 mm well as I am stubborn [I hate losing, especially to a goddamn stupid
machine] - i've reinstalled debian (to ensure that anything that *may* have
been inadvertently broken was fixed) and i'm going to give kde another try.
I've edited my sources.list file to show:

deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 3.0 r0 _Woody_ - Official i386 Binary-7
(20020718)]/ unstable contrib main non-US/contrib non-US/main
deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 3.0 r0 _Woody_ - Official i386 Binary-6
(20020718)]/ unstable contrib main non-US/contrib non-US/main
deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 3.0 r0 _Woody_ - Official i386 Binary-5

(20020718)]/ unstable contrib main non-US/contrib non-US/main

deb http://people.debian.org/~schoepf/kde3/woody ./ stable main
deb http://ftp.au.debian.org/debian/ stable main  
deb-src http://ftp.au.debian.org/debian/ stable main  
deb http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US stable/non-US main
deb-src http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US stable/non-US main

deb http://security.debian.org/ stable/updates main

I have no idea why the cd stuff is showing as unstable - I *did* download
stable.  I am 100% positive on this.  Is this how it should be??
Anyways...after updating sources.list I run:

apt-get update

And it errors out, with this following error message:

maxus:/etc/apt# apt-get update
E: Malformed line 15 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list (Absolute dist)

What have I done wrong?  It looks fine to my eye (and reading a previous
post from (I think it was) Thomas indicates that it just needs to be main. 

Dave

PS I also tried:

deb http://people.debian.org/~schoepf/kde3/woody ./ main

and that didn't work either.

Use the deb source written above. The packages there will work with
woody (=stable) without requiring any libs from testing or unstable.
