The code names of Debian releases are names of characters from the film Toy Story. The unstable, development distribution is nicknamed sid, after the emotionally unstable next-door neighbour boy who destroyed toys on a regular basis.
Where do these codenames come from?
So far they have been characters taken from the movie "Toy Story" by Pixar.
-
buzz (Buzz Lightyear) was the spaceman,
-
rex was the tyrannosaurus,
-
bo (Bo Peep) was the girl who took care of the sheep,
-
hamm was the piggy bank,
-
slink (Slinky Dog (R)) was the toy dog,
-
potato was, of course, Mr. Potato (R),
-
woody was the cowboy,
-
sarge was the sergeant of the Green Plastic Army Men,
-
etch was the toy blackboard (Etch-a-Sketch (R)),
-
lenny was the binoculars.
-
sid was the boy next door who destroyed toys.
Sid repository is dangerous, but it's really powerful for developers. Almost you can find any lib packages here.

the gpg key:
when you run apt-get update, you will be told error about gpg key:A70DAF536070D3A1

From here you can find a lot of libs which are really difficult to get from those stable repositories.
