** Description changed: [Impact] * Currently, as reported above, Landscape repository profiles only act upon .list files while .sources remain in effect. As Noble transitioned from the default source definition being the traditional .list files to DEB822 .sources files, this bug manifested when a customer noticed sources that they wanted disabled were still appearing in apt update. * The determined solution was to add pattern matching for .sources extensions as well as .list files. Merged PR here: https://github.com/canonical/landscape-client/pull/298 * The first LTS to support DEB822 .sources was Xenial, however, the first LTS where this format became the default was noble. The proposed SRU is to bring this change back to Focal [Testing] * To reproduce the problem, apply a repository profile on an affected ubuntu system and observe that it does not migrate .sources files to .sources.save by listing /etc/apt/sources.list.d/, and running apt update to see that the sources are still being used * Upgrade to the landscape-client packages from proposed and apply a Landscape profile, noting that .sources files successfully move to .sources.save and no longer appear in the output of apt update - * Ensure that .list files are also renamed to .list.save (as this is + * Ensure that .list files are also renamed to .list.save (as this is the current behaviour) [What can go wrong] * The change is rather localized and brief, so it is not expected to introduce any regressions or problems.

This means that applying a repository profile to any machine using the new .sources files will still have their public repository sources enabled after a repository profile is applied. https://github.com/canonical/landscape- client/blob/main/landscape/client/manager/aptsources.py#L144 This was reported 2024-11-08 internally, and now also reported by a customer in case:00400550
