There's no "too". It's *the* repository through which LTS updates are available. Packages that have not been updated for LTS will continue to be available via the main archive repositories, so you will continue to want them all in your sources.list. The only difference is that you'll switch from getting security updates provided by the Security Team via security.debian.org to security updates provided by the LTS Team via security.debian.org. > Didn't see that in the documentation. I'm sure suggestions as to how to make things more obvious would be welcomed. However, https://wiki.debian.org/LTS/Using says: <quote> For Debian 7 "Wheezy" LTS there will be no requirement to add a separate wheezy-lts suite to your sources.list any more. In fact you will not notice the switch to LTS because after the official security support by the Debian Security Team ends, security updates will be provided via security.debian.org 's wheezy/updates </quote> That seems quite clear to me at least.
