apt support for debian squeeze

Hi all,

We're looking at adding the rtems 4.11 apt repository to our server
(debian squeeze) sources.list but have run into some problems. I was
hoping to investigate both the powerpc and arm toolchains.

On our debian squeeze box, the key at 
http://www.rtems.org/ftp/pub/rtems/linux/gpg-pubkey-69ce4a83-44cc2b30
doesn't seem to authenticate any packages.

Additionally,
http://www.rtems.org/ftp/pub/rtems/linux/4.11/debian/dists/squeeze/rtems4.11/binary-i386/Packages
doesn't seem to contain any *-gdb packages.

There were a couple of other things, but my question is: Is this working
for anyone else?

I also tried with ubuntu - powerpc toolchain installed fine, gpg key
worked fine, but some arm toolchain entries in the Packages file don't
exist, due to an apparent naming mismatch:

e.g. In the Packages file:

pool/rtems4.11/r/rtems-4.11-arm-rtems4.11-binutils/rtems-4.11-arm-rtems4.11-binutils_2.21-1natty2_i386.deb

vs the extant file:

pool/rtems4.11/r/rtems-4.11-arm-rtemseabi4.11-binutils/rtems-4.11-arm-rtemseabi4.11-binutils_2.21-1natty2_i386.deb

Any thoughts?

Cheers,
Tim
