Ralph probably forgot a "apt-get update" but nevertheless the following
APT source does no longer exist:
deb http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US proposed-updates/non-US main contrib non-free
Does anyone know a mirror for Woody and other (older?) systems?
Also the usage of
deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian proposed-updates main contrib non-free
in hour site is bad as it refers now probably to Etch whereas it referred
in the past to Woody. We should use code names instead.
Where are currently proposed updates for Woody?
http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/dists/ lists sarge-proposed-updates/,
etch-proposed-updates/, lenny-proposed-updates/, oldstable-proposed-updates/
but no woody-proposed-updates/ or oldoldstable-proposed-updates/ :-)
Even http://archive.debian.org/dists/ misses woody-proposed-updates/ but
provides {hamm,potato,slink}-proposed-updates.

Oops, Ralph convinced me that it is important to update even old release
pages as Woody may still be used in production (even I have still such a
old system).
I will try to update the pages but need at least woody-proposed-updates ...
