    I needed to use this apt sources entry instead:

    deb http://download.tuxfamily.org/3v1deb edgy 3v1n0
    deb-src http://download.tuxfamily.org/3v1deb edgy 3v1n0

    because the server issued a redirect to another host that aptitude install (and propably apt-get) was not able to handle. aptitude update worked however.

    per Trevino’s site: http://3v1n0.tuxfamily.org/dists/edgy/3v1n0/

    the repos should be

    deb http://download.tuxfamily.org/3v1deb edgy 3v1n0
    deb-src http://download.tuxfamily.org/3v1deb edgy 3v1n0

    (replace edgy with dapper if needed)

    otherwise you get an error when trying to update (404 or something along those lines)…

    Hope this helps someone!
