    Hi All
    Apt is holding back quite a few packages from upgrade, when I look into
    these I find that depedencies are broken due to the package being
    'UNAVAILABLE'. I figured perhaps the specific mirror I've been using
    just didn't have the package, so now I use a few mirrors, but I still
    have the same problem.
    Here's an example. I can't upgrade AMSN as it is dependent on tcltls,
    which is unavailable.

    Is there somewhere I can point my sources list to find these unavailable
    packages?
    Thanks
    Glenn
