The tutorial says "Add sid to your sources.list". So, I added the following
lines to /etc/apt/sources.list:
deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ sid main
deb-src http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ sid main
!!!! :( :( :(
Thank you for pointing out the problem. I've changed the text on that
page.
Thanks for the clarification. There's nothing like blowing up your
system periodically to test backup/ recovery procedures. ;-)
So, add only the following line to /etc/apt/sources.list, modifying the
mirror per local requirements?
deb-src http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ sid main
It would probably be best to show an example line, especially for
non-native English readers.
