Web page instructions for Squeeze say to use:

I put that (and the other 3 TDE lines) in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/trinity.list manually.
When "trinity-keyring" gets installed it actually writes to (and overwrites if already exists) that file with this entry:
New issue 649: http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=649

Thanks for doing the bug report.
I can't see the reason for writing anything to sources.list(.d) anyway, you need that already set up to apt-get the keyring package!
If you already set TDE in main sources.list, you would then have double entries for the same stuff. Also, the ubuntu reference is confusing.
It's quite common for Debian users to manually enter non-Debian lists in sources.list.d.

The install directions on the TDE site say to add sources to the ~/sources.list file. Why have two lists ?
This is something I have always done, manage my own sources.list, not necessarily 'best practices'. Probably a good reason Debian has the ~/sources.list.d dir :-)
I was not aware TDE was writing sources until I read this thread and looked. I have a google-chrome.list there, I know Opera writes there also.
