[aklug] Re: Debian Lenny End of Life

My update was successful. I also found that deb-multimedia for Lenny didn't
exist anymore. Need it as I use AVI & MP3's. A little research and it turns
out the wheezy deb-multimedia works fine. I am only using the codecs and
x-less mplayer anyway so I am not too concerned. My repo list for Lenny:

deb http://archive.debian.org/debian/ lenny main non-free contrib
deb-src http://archive.debian.org/debian/ lenny main non-free contrib
# Volatile:
deb http://archive.debian.org/debian-volatile lenny/volatile main
contrib non-free
deb-src http://archive.debian.org/debian-volatile lenny/volatile main
contrib non-free
# Previously announced security updates:
deb http://archive.debian.org/debian-security lenny/updates main
# Debian Multimedia
http://www.deb-multimedia.org squeeze main non-free
