Bug#879151: debian-ports support when setting up sources.list
X-Debbug-CC: Samuel Thibault <sthibault@debian.org>, наб <nabijaczleweli@nabijaczleweli.xyz>
Hi,
In the present state of debian-installer apt-mirror-setup
creates some non functional entries in /etc/apt/sources.list
when installing on an architecture from the Debian-Ports repository.
Here are the three last lines in my /etc/apt/sources.list :
deb-src http://debian.inf.tu-dresden.de/debian-ports/ sid main
# 'unreleased' does not support sources yet
# deb-src http://debian.inf.tu-dresden.de/debian-ports/ unreleased main
and apt-get update outputs a warning :
W: Skipping acquire of configured file 'main/source/Sources' as repository 'http://debian.inf.tu-dresden.de/debian-ports sid InRelease' does not seem to provide it (sources.list entry misspelt?)
The source indices are not on the debian-ports mirrors but
on the regular debian mirrors. Perhaps a line pointing to a
default repository would help.
There is no non-free nor contrib components either. Some non-free
firmwares may be useful though.
If the user selects non-free and contrib (at low priority)
a line is inserted in sources.list :
deb http://debian.inf.tu-dresden.de/debian-ports/ sid main non-free contrib
This results in a warning :
W: Skipping acquire of configured file 'non-free/binary-all/Packages' as repository 'http://debian.inf.tu-dresden.de/debian-ports sid InRelease' doesn't have the component 'non-free' (component misspelt in sources.list?)
W: Skipping acquire of configured file 'non-free/binary-alpha/Packages' as repository 'http://debian.inf.tu-dresden.de/debian-ports sid InRelease' doesn't have the component 'non-free' (component misspelt in sources.list?)
W: Skipping acquire of configured file 'non-free/i18n/Translation-en' as repository 'http://debian.inf.tu-dresden.de/debian-ports sid InRelease' doesn't have the component 'non-free' (component misspelt in sources.list?)
W: Skipping acquire of configured file 'contrib/binary-alpha/Packages' as repository 'http://debian.inf.tu-dresden.de/debian-ports sid InRelease' doesn't have the component 'contrib' (component misspelt in sources.list?)
W: Skipping acquire of configured file 'contrib/binary-all/Packages' as repository 'http://debian.inf.tu-dresden.de/debian-ports sid InRelease' doesn't have the component 'contrib' (component misspelt in sources.list?)
W: Skipping acquire of configured file 'contrib/i18n/Translation-en' as repository 'http://debian.inf.tu-dresden.de/debian-ports sid InRelease' doesn't have the component 'contrib' (component misspelt in sources.list?)
I contemplate updating the patch previously attached to this bug
report.
