Hmmm, their source isn't quite right. It is actually
deb http://archive.progeny.com/progeny/ progeny main contrib
the extra progeny or stable or newton is needed. You can also get non-free:
deb http://archive.progeny.com/progeny/ stable main non-free contrib
On progeny debian's site, they include these instructions to upgrade from debian
potato to progeny:
Add a line to the top of the /etc/apt/sources.list file:
deb http://archive.progeny.com/progeny newton main contrib non-free
Run the following commands:
# apt-get update
# apt-get -f dist-upgrade
# apt-get install debconf
# apt-get install progeny-potato-upgrade
Install the progeny-standard-system package (recommended):
# apt-get install progeny-standard-system
Remove the progeny-potato-upgrade package:
# dpkg --remove progeny-potato-upgrade
Reboot your system (recommended).
