Righty.. Thanks all for your help, much appreciated. I think I'm
there (more or less). (I found
http://lists.bitfolk.com/lurker/message/20080529.142153.954fedf4.el.html
which came in handy)
cat /etc/debian_version
5.0.7
uname -r
2.6.18-6-xen-686

My sources.list contains:
deb
http://apt-cacher.lon.bitfolk.com/debian/ftp.uk.debian.org/
debian/ stable main contrib
deb-src
http://apt-cacher.lon.bitfolk.com/debian/ftp.uk.debian.org/debian/
stable main contrib
deb
http://apt-cacher.lon.bitfolk.com/debian/
security.debian.org/ stable/updates main contrib
Is that sensible?
***
apt-get update still comes back with a few ignores. Should I worry?
