Package: apt
Version: 1.4.9
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
Excuse me if this is not the place to notify this error.
I see that apt on stretch have a problem after manual edition of sources.list:
any section after "main" is ignored. All sources.list editing examples show
"main contrib non-free", but that means that only the indices of main are
downloaded, and the solution is to place main at the end: "contrib non-free
main" or "non-free contrib main". I saw this problem in the stretch release,
but I can confirm that it continues today and generates a lot of confusion in
the new ones.
