Not the most useful reply...

For one thing, people.debian.org is not meant for apt sources - it
involves an HTTP redirect that apt-get doesn't like at all.  So people
still give machine names for aptable repositories on their home pages.

Second, XF4 is not available for debian/powerpc right now.  I'm working
on it.
