Package: apt
Version: 0.8.15.6
Severity: important

As of apt 0.8.15.6, sources.list entries that use the "deb http://... path/"
format instead of the "deb http://... release component" format fail (for
me).

For example, I have the following entries in my sources.list:

deb-src http://iguanaworks.net/downloads/debian source/
deb http://iguanaworks.net/downloads/debian binary-amd64/

With apt 0.8.15.5, apt-get update reports no errors.  With apt 0.8.15.6, I
get these errors:

W: Failed to fetch http://iguanaworks.net/downloads/debian/source/Release
Unable to find expected entry 'Sources' in Release file (Wrong sources.list
entry or malformed file)

W: Failed to fetch
http://iguanaworks.net/downloads/debian/binary-amd64/Release  Unable to find
expected entry 'Packages' in Release file (Wrong sources.list entry or
malformed file)

The latter Release file currently looks like this:

Archive: karmic
Component: contrib
Origin: IguanaWorks
Label: IguanaWorks Debian/Ubuntu Repository
Architecture: amd64

Which is the same set of keys that the ftp.us.debian.org Release file(s)
have AFAICT.

>From searching around, I'm wondering if this may be related to an older
(fixed) bug: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=622250

So, that merge eventually happend in between the last 4 years. I can't easily
find the anymore as we switch from bzr to git so the number I mentioned is
meaningless now, but while HIGHLY DISCOURAGED Release files without hashes are
still supported (even through newer apt versions will start complaining about
it and eventually stop supporting it).

Closing as done hence.


Best regards
