> Does the same behaviour exist if you are using a 3rd party repo ? Yes, as long as you have imported the repositories GPG key with apt-key. I forgot this point in my original post. The etch and later apt-get will _always_ prompt you if you are installing a package which is not "verified". Verification means: the package is listed in a package list containing package checksums and that package list is signed with a key known to apt-key.
