This won't work entirely, as the Filename field in the package description files still points to the old location, so although apt-get update will work, apt-get install will bail out with 404 errors.

I ended up doing as you suggested, manually reading all the dependancies, and then wgetting each one from the site. Tedious, entirely avoidable, but mostly workable.

Try changing your sources.list entries to:

They haven't been removed, just moved.

    So did those debian packages end up somewhere else? I can't quite tell
    from the what I've read... I don't see them in the Marillat
    repository... Wish I could have grabbed the latest before they vanished
    from the mdz site.
