Package: apt-setup Severity: normal After a regular installation from netinst, sources.list usually looks like this:
# deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 12.0.0 _Sid_ - Unofficial amd64 NETINST with firmware 20230128-23:05]/ sid local main non-free non-free-firmware #deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 12.0.0 _Sid_ - Unofficial amd64 NETINST with firmware 20230128-23:05]/ sid local main non-free non-free-firmware deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ sid main non-free-firmware deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian/ sid main non-free-firmware # This system was installed using small removable media # (e.g. netinst, live or single CD). The matching "deb cdrom" # entries were disabled at the end of the installation process. # For information about how to configure apt package sources, # see the sources.list(5) manual. It feels weird to have the commented out cdrom: entries twice, and I'm tempted to remove one of those. The first one comes from apt-setup's generators/01setup which retains existing entries in sources.list, but commented out. The relevant code has been around since forever (it was already present before the split from svn), but I don't understand what purpose it serves, and I'm inclined to just remove this. If the previous entries are useful, the existing file can be saved elsewhere. # add old file as comments sed 's/^/# /' < $ROOT/etc/apt/sources.list | sed 's/^# # */# /' > $file The second one is due to the finish-install hook that disables cdrom entries in certain conditions, which also adds the informative text at the bottom. That can be kept as is. Cheers, -- Cyril Brulebois (k...@debian.org) <https://debamax.com/> D-I release manager -- Release team member -- Freelance Consultant
