The problem is that the gnu server was compromised a few months back,
and apparently they still haven't verified that the parted boot images
they have on hand are correct.
If you'd like, you can email me directly and I can make the 1.6.2
version available to you. Unfortunately, you'd have to take my word
that they're "real."
To be honest, I'm not sure it makes a whole lot of sense to include the
boot images in the debian package. But even if that is a good idea, I
don't know if the latest boot images are available right now from a
trusted source.
