The difference is related to old-stable and it's the bottom stanza that differs. You have: >> deb http://security.debian.org/ squeeze/updates main contrib non-free >> deb-src http://security.debian.org/ squeeze/updates main contrib non-free Which is wrong. You should have: > deb http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian/ squeeze-updates main contrib non-free > deb http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian/ squeeze-proposed-updates main > contrib non-free > deb-src http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian/ squeeze-proposed-updates main > contrib non-free > deb-src http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian/ squeeze-updates main contrib > non-free Which is correct. Change that and you'll be good to go. Excellent, only took me three emails to spot that...
