Package: developers-reference Severity: minor Tags: patch '*.list' files are now replaced by '*.sources' files. The provided patch (in attachment) replaces the example by the new file format. It also adds some highlights. I don't know if the 'Signed-By' line is necessary. I added it based on '/etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.sources' file on 'testing' system. I can send a PR on salsa if you prefer. Regards -- Stéphane
