It seems squeeze has experienced some sort of migration to an LTS release even though officially it's not longer supported.
The point is, I'd like to
sudo apt-get install texlive-science but say it will have problems
Squeeze transitioned to LTS a couple of years (or so) ago. Just in last week or two the LTS terminated and Squeeze was archived. It is no longer supported by Debian or the LTS team, nor is it present on Debian servers. To get old packages use snapshot.debian.org. E.g. Squeeze was still present on the 1st March this year so using that date I suggest pointing apt at: http://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian/20160301T103342Z (It is possible there might be some final Squeeze LTS updates since then before it was archived. I am not sure of the exact date support terminated.) Cheers Michael.
