Oh - I presumed that it was talking about the files it was installing -
which are normally all on the local filesystem:

/etc/apt/sources.list:
deb file:/ilc/debian unstable main contrib non-free
deb file:/ilc/debian-non-US unstable non-US
deb file:/ilc/debian-ilc unstable ilc
deb http://www.debian.org/~jules/gnome-stage-2 unstable main

Cheers
