[Mono-list] Access to (recent) older versions of mono in the download.mono-project.com debian repository

[River Satya]

I just tried adding:

deb http://download.mono-project.com/repo/debian wheezy/snapshots/4.0.5.1
> main
>

W: Conflicting distribution: http://download.mono-project.com
> wheezy/snapshots/4.0.5.1 InRelease (expected wheezy/snapshots but got
> wheezy)


Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks,

River
