apt-get: 93 Protocol error



The full error is:
Could not create a socket - socket (93 Protocol not supported)

apt-get was working fine and then I made the mistake of attempting an
upgrade which required editing the sources.list.  To get a newer ver
of gnome or kde or something like that.  Eventually it was obvious 
that the edited sources.list was not going to work and, as usually,
returning to the original text did not fix the problem.  I have been 
able to do an ftp upgrade via dselect but would like to get apt-get
running.

To that end I went to ftp.debian.org and ftp://non-us.debian.org and 
found these paths (for goodness sake, this should work) 

sources.list
