This seems to be a miss-print in the English version too. Compare this man page entry from Ubuntu 7.04...
" SOURCES.LIST.D The /etc/apt/sources.list.d directory provides a way to add sources.list entries in seperate files that end with sources.list file. " ...with this one from http://linux.die.net/man/5/sources.list: " Description The package resource list is used to locate archives of the package distribution system in use on the system. This control file is located in /etc/apt/sources.list and additionally any files ending in .list in /etc/apt/sources.list.d are included. " I suspect someone made a bit of a slip during a cut'n'paste edit. This may affect quite a few translations. -- possible error in sources.list manpage https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/107641 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
