I can't use aptitude anymore.

It was working, pre-sarge-archive.

Typing aptitude on the command line gives me this:

W: Couldn't stat source package list http://archive.debian.org sarge/main
Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/archive.debian.org_debian-archive_dists_sarge_
main_binary-i386_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory)
W: Couldn't stat source package list http://archive.debian.org sarge/contrib
Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/archive.debian.org_debian-archive_dists_sarge
_contrib_binary-i386_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory)
W: Couldn't stat source package list http://archive.debian.org sarge/non-free
Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/archive.debian.org_debian-archive_dists_sarge
_non-free_binary-i386_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory)

(That's 3 _long_ lines; I broke them up for e-mail convenience.)

My sources.list

deb http://archive.debian.org/debian-archive/ sarge main contrib non-free

per the README at the archive site.

My /var/lib/apt/lists contains line referring to http.us.debian.org
[...]; I tried moving the directory out of the way (renaming it) but
no joy.

Please, no {advice, orders} to upgrade to etch.  Consider this a
question about aptitude/sources.list/archives.
