+<div class="sectionbody">\r
+<div class="paragraph"><p>In general, you should use the repositories of your distribution. Adding\r
+third-party repositories to your <tt>/etc/sources.list</tt> has security implications\r
+and makes your <tt>apt-get update</tt> take longer. However, in some cases, using our\r
+repositories makes sense:</p></div>\r
+<div class="dlist"><dl>\r
+<dt class="hdlist1">\r
+You are using Debian stable\r
+</dt>\r
+<dd>\r
+<p>\r
+ The latest version of i3 will be in Debian testing quite soon. The version\r
+ in Debian stable can be old, however (we cannot update it after stable has\r
+ been released). The best way is to add Debian testing and tell <tt>apt</tt> to\r
+ prefer Debian stable. You should <strong>not</strong> use our repository.\r
+ Alternatively, you can also use\r
+ <a href="http://backports.debian.org/">stable-backports (e.g. wheezy-backports for\r
+ Debian wheezy)</a>.\r
+</p>\r
+</dd>\r
+<dt class="hdlist1">\r
+You are using Ubuntu\r
+</dt>\r
+<dd>\r
+<p>\r
+ Only a handful of packages are maintained by Ubuntu developers. The rest is\r
+ synchronized periodically from Debian, every 6 months. Therefore, Ubuntu\r
+ often includes old versions of i3. You should use our Ubuntu repository.\r
+</p>\r
+</dd>\r
+<dt class="hdlist1">\r
+You want the latest i3 development version\r
+</dt>\r
+<dd>\r
+<p>\r
+ If you are using Debian (Debian-derived systems might work, too) or Ubuntu\r
+ and want the latest development version of i3, you should use our Debian\r
+ repository.\r
