Sorry, I should have added that I already tried everything in the

Are the mirrors out of date?


Sorry if I seem to be talking to myself, but it seems that if you  
can't find the unstable package you are looking for, it might be  
useful to try changing your find update target from rsync to cvs.
I found the package, but a lot of mirrors are failing to download  
this morning.


But it seems that the initial problem has been addressed.
