Yes, inserting:
deb http://archive.debian.org/debian sarge main

#apt-get update

then make the same query to apt-get and see if it overwrites the files

Hi Ed,
Are you doing your downloads immediately after apt-get update?
In case you wait several hours (days) until you decide to download a

which causes the older one to be removed from the server.
So what you should do is:
