Debian_installation - repositories not found

[John Magolske]

In attempting to install ConTeXt on Debian sid as per
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Debian_installation

I added these to my /etc/apt/sources.list :

    # for texlive
    deb http://people.debian.org/~preining/TeX/ tl2007/
    deb-src http://people.debian.org/~preining/TeX/ src/

    # for lmodern
    deb http://people.debian.org/~preining/TeX/ lmodern/
    deb-src http://people.debian.org/~preining/TeX/ lmodern/

    # for context
    deb http://people.debian.org/~preining/TeX/ context/
    deb-src http://people.debian.org/~preining/TeX/ context/

But when running aptitude update:

    Err http://people.debian.org lmodern/ Packages
      404  Not Found [IP: 206.12.19.5 80]
    Err http://people.debian.org lmodern/ Sources
      404  Not Found [IP: 206.12.19.5 80]
    Err http://people.debian.org context/ Packages
      404  Not Found [IP: 206.12.19.5 80]
    Err http://people.debian.org context/ Sources
      404  Not Found [IP: 206.12.19.5 80]

Are there other repositories to point to for the most recent packages?
Maybe these are just temporarily unavailable? Or am I missing
something else?

Thanks for any suggestions,

John

Ah, yes, lmodern and context packages are gone. Don't remember why, but
I assume because there were no differences anymore and people could
simply install the versions from Debian/stable ...

John, what are you running (Debian release) and what do you want to install?

Best wishes

Norbert

I'm running Debian unstable, and would like to install a somewhat
recent version of ConTeXt IV. I was under the impression the steps
listed in http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Debian_installation would
accomplish this. I'm also considering installing the minimals
instead, but it would be nice to be able to apt-get a recent ConTeXt
if possible. I'd like to keep LaTeX on my system as well, and would
like to avoid too much redundancy (small 16GB SSD).

Regards,

John

For Debian/unstable you do NOT need *ANY* of those. Everything is
in Debian unstable and testing!!

These things are only for *oldstable*!!! Not even current *stable* 
needs them!

Just do
	apt-get install context
should be enough. But that is not the most recent context, I haven't
found time for packaging a more current version for now. I hope
that I can manage it in the next weeks.

I decided to install the minimals for now so as to be able to follow
the latest ConTeXt developments. Thanks for maintaining the Debian
packages, volunteering for various projects myself, I understand it
all takes time.

Regards,

John
