If you also have 32 bit packages, then "all" is appropriate. you will want to run an apt-get update in the post-uninstall area since you are removing a list. typically I don't remove list files unless there is a chance of some conflict, in which case they should not be left enabled at all. (deb-multimedia is an example here, good packages, but leaving the repo enabled is bad for mx). for the key, download into /tmp instead of /root. remove the temporary downloaded deb after install. we prefer the deb-src entries to be commented out by default. our debian.list file is a good example. > ###########
