Whenever someone suggests a third party repository, please add a note 
saying that it is not official Debian and there might be problems 
installing/using it. Perhaps the OP might know about it. But people 
reading the archives on google might not.

I have seen too many cases, where people start using 3rd party 
repositories and complain about Debian's instability.

just my 2 cents
