During the DAB build, I get:
Code:
dab init
download: [URL]http://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/lenny/Release[/URL]
download: [URL]http://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/lenny/Release.gpg[/URL]
download: [URL]http://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/lenny/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz[/URL]
download: [URL]http://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/lenny/contrib/binary-i386/Packages.gz[/URL]
download: [URL]http://security.debian.org/dists/lenny/Release[/URL]
Release info ignored
download: [URL]http://security.debian.org/dists/lenny/updates/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz[/URL]
download: [URL]http://security.debian.org/dists/lenny/updates/contrib/binary-i386/Packages.gz[/URL]
In the above, the first security.debian line is malformed:
Code:
download: [URL]http://security.debian.org/dists/lenny/Release[/URL]
Release info ignored
This is because, the Release file is in:
Code:
[URL]http://security.debian.org/dists/lenny/updates/Release[/URL]
How do we update DAB / sources.list to act correctly?
 
This has been sorted out by altering the Source in the dab.conf file to be:
Code:
Suite: lenny
CacheDir: ../cache
Source: [URL]http://ftp.debian.org/debian[/URL] SUITE main contrib
Source: [URL]http://security.debian.org[/URL] [B]SUITE/updates[/B] main contrib 
Source: [URL]http://www.backports.org/debian[/URL] lenny-backports main contrib non-free
#Mirror: [URL]http://ftp.debian.org/debian[/URL] => [URL]ftp://mirror/debian[/URL]
Architecture: i386
.

.

This correction needs to be made to the dab.conf file used to build the MediaWiki template.
