This is how it would look like on Debian Jessie: deb http://:/http.us.debian.org/debian/ jessie main deb-src http://:/http.us.debian.org/debian/ jessie main deb http://:/security.debian.org/ jessie/updates main deb-src http://:/security.debian.org/ jessie/updates main deb http://:/http.us.debian.org/debian/ jessie-updates main deb-src http://:/http.us.debian.org/debian/ jessie-updates main This concludes out tutorial.
