You will *not* be able to address the ocata-backports only this way. The
reason is simple: it will take too long (longer than then timeout) to
build all backports for jessie-ocata, plus there's some packages that
need to be build first (build-depends...).

The *ONLY* way to address the transition here, is to import all Newton
package into the Ocata repo. That should be done by a simple reprepro
command (any infra root will have access to it).
