If you could give some more detail, I might understand what you did?
Hello,
After updating my apt sources to the modernized ones, the synaptic
settings ard preferences are blank (and don't show the usual sources).
Updates and selection though the program still works fine, so I
imagine this is a small oversight somewhere...

With the previous discussion on modernizing one's apt sources files, I
went ahead and did it on two of my trixie installations.
The two original sources files were preserved, which might be useful
for some oddball installations.
Note that sources.list, which resides in /etc/apt, is replac
es buster-main.sources buster-security-main.sources
$
And then I have - mostly autogenerated packages:
$ apt-cache search bullseye- | sed 's/ for installation .*//'
bullseye-backports-contrib-sources - List of apt-sources
bullseye-backports-contrib-src-sources - List of apt-sources
bullseye-bac
you could apt-get netselect-apt and then run it. Not only does that
package get you the current list, it also shows you which server for your
local conditions is now running the fastest for you whether you're signed
up to it or not.

Hi,
ok, just tried it. But it seems that it still has 2.2.5 displayed on the
