NO !
This is Debian and one quality is: you can update Debian very nice
And with this hack, you throw away this quality!
there is only one solution:
throw away this new rubbish debian-secure !
If you need a specal debian Package file with signatures and other
features, use Packages.gpg or Packages_new_features or ...
But don't make this new sub-dir and kill a nice quality from debian.
