Meant for that to go to the list, not Lawrence directly.

Problem solved. Thank you all for your help!

After I was armed with the knowledge that I should have it by now, I
dug a little deeper. I discovered that I had molested my sources.conf
in an earlier attempt to  work around my work's draconian blocking of
rsync. After geting rsync approval I had then not reverted to the
default sources.conf.

So, as with most issues, this one was user induced. Thank you all for
the fast responses!
