no more able to add distributions and components

[Gaetano Borrini]

With the newest update of maas, it's no more possible to change the distributions and components by adding a new repository.

it always set main as component. The repo i would like to use, uses stable as component.

Hi Gaetano,

Thank you for your bug report. Please provide the following information:

What version of MAAS are you using? (dpkg -l | grep maas)
Can you provide step by step instructions to reproduce?
Can you provide screenshots?

As in the manual described 'https://docs.maas.io/2.1/en/manage-repos' there is a possibility to type distributions and components when adding additional repos.

this is the installed version: 2.4.0-6981-g011e51b7a-0ubuntu1~18.04.1

attached is a screenshot how it looks now. before the update the two fields for distribution and components where present.

I'm marking this bug as a duplicate of #1782230. This has now been fixed in the latest development release and this will be fixed for the next 2.4 point release.

In the meantime, you can use the API to perform this updates.

Thanks.
