Debian Lenny archives location ?

2011-04-28 Thread Ravi Roy
This might be a stupid question becuase of my ignorance, in case it is, please excuse me. Debian 6.0 Squeeze is stabe and Lenny (last point rel. 5.0.8) is old stable. As per the posts I have come through so far, says that oldstable are moved to http://archive.debian.org (archives for oldstables).

Re: Debian Lenny archives location ?

2011-04-28 Thread Ravi Roy
That is true, but oldstable is only archived one year after the relase of the current stable. That means you should find lenny sitting just beside squeeze on most mirrors. Your sources.list entries from before squeeze should still work until February 2012. Ah, great. New learning for me.
