That never occured to me. I have used apt-get.org before without any
problems.

| I've gone off apt-get.org because I don't see that it's properly

|
| Let's say that you get a deb line: deb http://w32-codecs.org ....
|
| Some time in the future the owner decides to plop Gnome, growisofs
|  and/other stuff in there.
|
| Potentially, w32-codecs.org has become your primary repository for
|  all sorts of unofficial stuff you don't know about or want.
|
| There may be ways to controll what you get from there, but London
| to a Brick hardly anyone here knows how:-)
