Package repository switched to Debian

Hi all: While working on my 8.04 server and fooling around with
dselect, the package repositories for apt-get got switched to
http://http.us.debian.org I'm not sure what I did to make this happen,
but the box began to download and install over a gigabyte of updates. I
was afraid to make it stop partway through, so I let it complete. That
seems to have been a good choice, as everything still works.
Typing (as root) 'cat /proc/version' reports:
Linux version 2.6.24-23-386 (buildd at palmer) (gcc version 4.2.4 (Ubuntu
4.2.4-1ubuntu3))
which appears normal to me, but typing 'apache2ctl status' now shows
Apache/2.2.9 (Debian) DAV/2 PHP/5.2.6-1+lenny3 with Suhosin-Patch
which almost certainly seems wrong. I'm sure there are other things
wrong too, but I just haven't found them yet.
So, do I need to put the repositories back to
http://mirror.csclub.uwaterloo.ca/ubuntu/ ? If so, can I just edit
/etc/apt/sources.list ? What are the repercussions of leaving it as is?
Thanx,
--Bob.
