Hi Andreas, "ogre-doc-nonfree" was removed from unstable in mid 2010 due to "ROM; superceded by ogre 1.6.4.dfsg1-1", and 1.6.4.dfsg1-1 was uploaded in October 2009, and was the version shipped with squeeze (oldstable, at this moment), released in Feb 2011. ogre-doc-nonfree did not even ship in squeeze. On the other hand, "ogre-doc" is not going to be released in Jessie (removed from testing and unstable), so this would be only fixable with an upload to the next point release for wheezy. Lenny was first released in Feb 2009, last point release and security updates discontinued happened in Feb/March 2012. https://packages.qa.debian.org/o/ogre-doc-nonfree/news/20100610T185814Z.html https://packages.qa.debian.org/o/ogre/news/20091001T152940Z.html http://www.debian.org/releases/lenny/ I don't know if I understand this correctly, but it seems that when this breakage did happen was in the upgrade lenny->squeeze; and support for both of these distributions is discontinued already, right?
