Comment 2 for bug 2070320

Hi Ryan, thanks for your report.

Just to clarify the issue: When setting "preserve_sources_list: false" it would effectively cause the target's /etc/apt/sources.list file to be updated with only the config provided via Curtin, correct? Now, we only ever get additive behavior?

Reading through the Curtin documentation, the intended behavior of the preserve_sources_list flag combined with .sources entries is unclear to me. I wonder if the effect of "preserve_sources_list: false" previously was to simply clear the sources.list file, instead of "updating" it.
