hi,
i am wondering about the sources.list
why isnt there a security-updates?
like:
#Testing Security updates
#deb http://security.debian.org/ testing/updates main contrib
#deb-src http://security.debian.org/ testing/updates main contrib
does it make sense to add it to my sources.list? |

| I have that source in my list and haven't experienced any issues upgrading. I've found, however, that Parsix lags behind Debian Testing by one to two weeks. Also, the point of Parsix is to put its own spin on Debian. I would imagine security updates would be applied at the time those packages are added to the Parsix repositories. |

| Parsix repositories contain updates from Debian-Security. |
