Public bug reported: Package: python-software-properties Release: 9.10 karmic-update
Expected: When running "sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ karmic multiverse", I expected a new file to be inserted in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ with the new repository. What happens: Instead, /etc/apt/source.list was moved to /etc/apt/source.list.save and /etc/apt/source.list was updated. Typically, if a debian package has configuration changes, they should be in the .d/ directory for management (i.e. if urls are changed in the base installation, etc...) ** Affects: software-properties (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- add-apt-repository should write to a new file in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ rather than /etc/apt/source.list https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/503905 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
