I know nothing about mate other than it's not debian. You will want to add debian security updates to your sources.list for sure regardless whether or not you use non-debian repos for additional apps: deb http://security.debian.org/ wheezy/updates main non-free contrib My setup is an xfce desktop. Here's my sources.list from my local mirror at MIT: ~$ grep -v "#" /etc/apt/sources.list deb http://security.debian.org/ wheezy/updates main non-free contrib deb http://debian.lcs.mit.edu/debian/ wheezy main non-free contrib deb http://debian.lcs.mit.edu/debian/ wheezy-updates main non-free contrib Run apt-get update after making any changes to your sources.list.
