Yes but shouldt we wipe out from our sources.list non-official sites? They could be dangerous... For example I have this: # Galeon web browser deb ftp://galeon.sourceforge.net/pub/galeon/nightly/debian galeonpotato/ Of course I am **not** telling that people from galeon are going to send us a virus.. in fact they are not this is just an example of .deb's I can recieve from non-official sites. But in a lot of places you can find things like: "For debian potato add the following to your sources.list... etc.." Someone could leak a virus into your system this way...
