This one seems to work http://stat.ethz.ch/CRAN/bin/linux/debian/lenny-cran/ so try that instead. Likewise for the sources. Also note the trailing slash.

[R] Strange Conflicts with Debian Repositories
Dear All, I have just installed a fresh Debian testing (squeeze) on my system (amd64 architecture). I am experiencing some really strange problems in updating my system whenever I have both the R repository and the multimedia repository available. This is my source.list (when I disable the multimedia repository) ~$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list deb http://ftp.ch.debian.org/debian/ testing main contrib non-free deb-src http://ftp.ch.debian.org/debian/ testing main non-free contrib deb http://security.debian.org/ testing/updates main contrib non-free deb-src http://security.debian.org/ testing/updates main contrib non-free #deb http://www.debian-multimedia.org testing main #deb http:///bin/linux/debian lenny-cran/ #deb-src http:///bin/linux/debian lenny-cran/ # Add R-repository deb http://cran.ch.r-project.org/bin/linux/debian lenny-cran/ deb-src http://cran.ch.r-project.org/debian/bin/linux/debian lenny-cran/ This way I have no trouble to update/upgrade my system (only, I do not see the sources of the R packages, but this is really a minor issue for now) ~$ sudo apt-get update Get:1 http://security.debian.org testing/updates Release.gpg [835B] Ign http://security.debian.org testing/updates/main Translation-en_US Ign http://security.debian.org testing/updates/contrib Translation-en_US Get:2 http://ftp.ch.debian.org testing Release.gpg [835B] Ign http://ftp.ch.debian.org testing/main Translation-en_US Ign http://ftp.ch.debian.org testing/contrib Translation-en_US Ign http://security.debian.org testing/updates/non-free Translation-en_US Hit http://security.debian.org testing/updates Release Ign http://ftp.ch.debian.org testing/non-free Translation-en_US Hit http://ftp.ch.debian.org testing Release Ign http://security.debian.org testing/updates/main Packages/DiffIndex Hit http://ftp.ch.debian.org testing/main Packages/DiffIndex Ign http://security.debian.org testing/updates/contrib Packages/DiffIndex Ign http://security.debian.org testing/updates/non-free Packages/DiffIndex Ign http://security.debian.org testing/updates/main Sources/DiffIndex Ign http://security.debian.org testing/updates/contrib Sources/DiffIndex Ign http://security.debian.org testing/updates/non-free Sources/DiffIndex Get:3 http://cran.ch.r-project.org lenny-cran/ Release.gpg [197B] Ign http://cran.ch.r-project.org lenny-cran/ Translation-en_US Ign http://cran.ch.r-project.org lenny-cran/ Release.gpg Hit http://ftp.ch.debian.org testing/contrib Packages/DiffIndex Ign http://ftp.ch.debian.org testing/non-free Packages/DiffIndex Hit http://ftp.ch.debian.org testing/main Sources/DiffIndex Ign http://ftp.ch.debian.org testing/non-free Sources/DiffIndex Hit http://ftp.ch.debian.org testing/contrib Sources/DiffIndex Hit http://security.debian.org testing/updates/main Packages Hit http://security.debian.org testing/updates/contrib Packages Hit http://security.debian.org testing/updates/non-free Packages Hit http://security.debian.org testing/updates/main Sources Hit http://security.debian.org testing/updates/contrib Sources Get:4 http://cran.ch.r-project.org lenny-cran/ Release [1,288B] Hit http://ftp.ch.debian.org testing/non-free Packages Hit http://ftp.ch.debian.org testing/non-free Sources Hit http://security.debian.org testing/updates/non-free Sources Ign http://cran.ch.r-project.org lenny-cran/ Release Ign http://cran.ch.r-project.org lenny-cran/ Packages Ign http://cran.ch.r-project.org lenny-cran/ Sources Ign http://cran.ch.r-project.org lenny-cran/ Packages Ign http://cran.ch.r-project.org lenny-cran/ Sources Get:5 http://cran.ch.r-project.org lenny-cran/ Packages [11.4kB] Err http://cran.ch.r-project.org lenny-cran/ Sources 404 Not Found Fetched 14.5kB in 3s (3,851B/s) W: Failed to fetch http://cran.ch.r-project.org/debian/bin/linux/debian/lenny-cran/Sources.gz 404 Not Found E: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
