Thank Luca for the fast fix!

I have trouble get the package through apt. Here is what I did:
 1) Added the URL to apt sources.lst (at the beginning),
 2) apt-get update
 3) apt-cache show dietlibc-dev

   Suggests: dietlibc-doc
   Filename: pool/universe/d/dietlibc/dietlibc-dev_0.30-7ubuntu1_powerpc.deb
This tells me apt still get the old/official package.

How to resolve this? BTW, one feature I really like to apt-get is option -url <deb url> for one time use without all the hassle such modifying sources.lst and pdate etc.
