Works fine. Note that if you are running sid that it is recommended to also include testing in the sources. Sometimes during transitions in sid and at other times that is very helpful. Plus if sid is broken by an upgrade then as long as you have been updating more often than the migration to Testing then the immediately previous package will still be available in testing. It is easier to install the previous version to fix transient breakage in sid. I have needed to do that many times. Easier than snapshot.debian.net for that type of thing. I have both of these lines on my Sid machine. deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian sid main contrib non-free deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian testing main contrib non-free Bob
