Dear Maintainer,
I have updated my sources list with "apt modernize-sources";
now I have the file "/etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.sources" and the old
"/etc/apt/sources.list" does not exists anymore.
If I run the command "apt-clone clone test" it crashes with this error:
Traceback (most recent call last):

I think apt-clone should be aware of the new format and not crash if a
file is missing; ideally it should backup both files if present.
Thanks
