Makes me wonder how safe the packages are.  -- I suspect most hackers (backhat?) are Linux types.....  Why mess up your own backyard?

Actually I get some Scandinavian language. The main point is that the 
package pages are still down because of the Nov. 21 compromise of the 
Debian servers. Even if you click on the 'english' link you still can't 
get to the actual package pages. You can however still download Debian 
packages.
