Severity: normal
Using the -c option to specify a source list file makes
the parsing of this file fail with "Extra junk at end of file".
This happened to me using different source.list files, all
working well as default.
Example:
argon:~# apt-get -c=/etc/apt/sources.list update
E: Syntax error /etc/apt/sources.list:36: Extra junk at end of file
argon:~# apt-get update

Hello,
The -c option is for configuration files and not for sources.list. If
you look at manpage you will see:
-c
--config-file
Configuration File; Specify a configuration file
to use. The program will read the default configuration
file and then this configuration file. See apt.conf(5)
for syntax information.
Thanks,
Otavio
