Package: installation
Severity: important
I desperately need to configure a new box just like another one.
The other one runs stock standard woody. But the oldstable
archives do not contain all the woody packages! I am thus
being forced to upgrade to new stable sarge which would be
fine EXCEPT that there are some bugs in sarge which I am
busy tracking down and reporting.
In short: It should be possible to configure a woody
box by pointing sources.list only at oldstable. It is not.
(The following apt info has nothing to do with this issue - different box.)

oldstable is a symlink pointing to 'woody', and the woody directory
didn't change at all with the sarge release (it even still calls woody
'stable', and not 'oldstable', see #312321).

If you insist that this is the case, please reopen this bug stating the
exact error message you've got and the mirror you're using.

http://packages.debian.org/libsql-statement-perl shows that the package
is in oldstable just fine.
I'm now closing this bug.
