Tried to fix:
# cd /data/deb-mirror/non-US/dists
# ln -s potato/non-US frozen
but now when installing:
Failed to fetch file:/data/deb-mirror/non-US/dists/frozen/non-US/main/binary-i386/gnupg_1.0.1-2.deb
So:
# cd /data/deb-mirror/non-US/dists/frozen
# ln -s . non-US
It works.
Another way:
# Would you like to add another source?[y/N] y
#
# URL [http://http.us.debian.org/debian]: file:/data/deb-mirror/non-US
#
# Please give the distribution tag to get or a path to the
# package file ending in a /. The distribution
# tags are typically something like: stable unstable frozen non-US
#
# Distribution [stable]: frozen/non-US
# frozen/non-US does not seem to be a typical distribution tag
But it works.
I think this should be fixed before potato becomes stable. If not it
will generate a lot of questions. Fix might be: Those links in
non-US, or an example telling to use 'frozen/non-US'.

The non-us ftp archive has changed layouts. You will have to read the
release notes and change the file on upgrade.
