Excuse my cluelessness, but what is the correct sources.list entry for 
that? I tried

deb http://public.pzr.uni-rostock.de/~moeller/mirror/ ./

but it does not work. For example, I get

After unpacking 4841kB of additional disk space will be used.

The version installed is actually 1.4.2, so either the Packages.gz needs 
to be updated, or I'm looking in the wrong place. If the former, would you 
be so kind as to update them?

Thanks.                                                         Faheem.
