/etc/apt/sources.list on debian etch


hi

I have debian etch installed:
Code:
# uname -a
Linux server.domain.net 2.6.18-4-686 #1 SMP Mon Mar 26 17:17:36 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux
could someone tell me pls, whether my /etc/apt/sources.list is correct ?
Code:
#
# deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux testing _Etch_ - Official Beta #i386 CD Binary-1 20070317-21:45]/ etch contrib main

#deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux testing _Etch_ - Official Beta #i386 CD Binary-1 20070317-21:45]/ etch contrib main

deb http://mirror.switch.ch/ftp/mirror/debian/ etch main
deb-src http://mirror.switch.ch/ftp/mirror/debian/ etch main

deb ftp://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ etch main non-free contrib

deb http://security.debian.org/ etch/updates main contrib

Looks okay to me, although you have redundant repositories.

I would comment out either the mirror.switch.ch (Switzerland mirror) lines or the ftp.de.debian.org (Germany mirror) line. Also make sure if you use the mirror.switch.ch lines and want more than just the main directory, add non-free contrib non-us to the end of the lines.
