Partly,
We didn't have any apt configuration files that pointed to that area, so 
we never thought of generating apt metadata for fastbugs.
Generating apt repositories is a bit more involved than yum 
repositories, so we haven't had a chance to redo the scripts to make a 
fastbugs area.

Yes, there is no apt metadata in SL5.
We also are not providing an apt binary.
