2006-06-22 05:03:15 Venkat Raghavan easyubuntu: statusexplanation Adding relevant discussion for research: 07:42 < gdb> I had suggested earlier simply dropping the easyubuntu changes in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/easyubuntu.list. 07:45 < gdb> Yes, it's a directory included (perhaps new in Dapper) that allows you to create "additions" to the sources.list in separate files that end in the extension .list. The idea is that a package or administrator can leave the system default unchanged and add new respositories in that directory. For example, I also use FreeNX and have an /etc/apt/sources.list.d/freenx.list file that contains respositories for just that software. The idea for easyubuntu woul 07:45 < gdb> deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ universe multiverse 07:45 < gdb> deb http://packages.freecontrib.org/ubuntu/plf/ dapper free non-free 07:45 < gdb> And only that, along with any relavent comments. 07:46 < gdb> Actually, the deb-src lines may need to be included as well, not sure if sources are provided for universe, multiverse, and freecontrib content.

Err, i was sleepy. This is a bug regarding repositories with dapper-updates not being in the final list, thus depriving the user of security updates in he chose to replace sources.list Sorry for the confusion
