Package: debian-reference Severity: normal X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected] Dear Maintainer,
in ch02, the documentation mentions the deb822 apt sources files, and says their file extension is ".source", but in reality it's ".sources". To people who are new to the deb822 specs, this may lead to misnaming their files, and subsequently package sources will not be found. (apt-update prints warnings however about the unrecognized files.) The occurrences I found in "Chapter 2. Debian package management" so far, in are: > This can be defined anywhere in the "/etc/apt/sources.list" file, "/etc/apt/sources.list.d/*.list" files, or "/etc/apt/sources.list.d/*.source" files. and > It's definition files are in "/etc/apt/sources.list.d/*.source" files. `*.source` should be changed to `*.sources` here. -- System Information: Debian Release: 12.12 APT prefers oldstable-updates APT policy: (500, 'oldstable-updates'), (500, 'oldstable-security'), (500, 'oldstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 6.1.0-41-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US:en Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages debian-reference depends on: pn debian-reference-en <none> Versions of packages debian-reference recommends: pn debian-reference-de <none> pn debian-reference-es <none> pn debian-reference-fr <none> pn debian-reference-id <none> pn debian-reference-it <none> pn debian-reference-ja <none> pn debian-reference-pt <none> pn debian-reference-zh-cn <none> pn debian-reference-zh-tw <none> debian-reference suggests no packages.
