The getdeb.net servers are currently unreachable, and it seems that they have been abandoned.

Try opening http://www.getdeb.net/ in your browser, and you will see an error message.

I recommend that you delete all references to getdeb.net from your package management system configuration, and the error message should disappear.

The getdeb repository is a bit flaky. Try it a bit later. A 3rd party repository that you found online, added and cannot reach isn't a bug. It's an issue on the repository side.

Contacting the Getdeb guys is a good first step.

I hope this is the place.
