You have this to help with sources.list:

http://www.debian.org/distrib/archive

Or there is

http://snapshot.debian.org

http://archive.debian.org/ may be helpful. That's where I found the
intfiction-installer package and installed it on wheezy and got it
working. hth.

I know that Lenny is no longer maintained, but I suppose that there
is a repository where the old packages are still available.

Could someone tell me what address I should put in my source.list so
as to be able to install the desired package ? Alternatively, where
could I possibly find an appropriate 'testdisk.deb' file that I
could install using 'dpkg -i mypackage.deb' ?
