Package: snapshot.debian.org
Severity: minor

After adding a snapshot.debian.org entry to my sources.list (as
described on the homepage), apt then complained during update about the
Valid-Until in the Release file:

        E: Release file expired, ignoring
        
http://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian/20100820T150149Z/dists/squeeze/Release
        (invalid since 10d 4h 40min 14s)

Since the snapshot.debian.org source is obviously temporary, I just
worked around this with:

        sudo aptitude -o 'Acquire::Check-Valid-Until=false' update

(not sure if there's a better workaround, but this works)

I guess something along these lines should be mentioned in the paragraph
about adding apt sources?
