apt sources.list.d

[marekdef]

Hello,

I used apt on debian and redhat, where there were additional configuration
files placed in sources.list.d directory.

However, in ubuntu it does not work this way.

I tried to solve the problem on my onw and set

Dir::Etc::sourceparts "sources.list.d";

in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/999sourceparts
and after doing

apt-config dump

i see that this exist.

But this does not cause apt-get update to fetch sources from the locations from files in sources.list.d directory.

Can you help me to enable this?
THX.

Thanks man,
but this is not the solution i am looking for.
This just adds custom line to the source.list file and that of course works.
Works means that i can download from repository.

But I just want to enable reading repositories from the sources.list.d directory.
It may be qustion more apt specyfic rahter that ubuntu related, anyway somebody knows the solution?

Ok I solved the problem after looking at apt source.
Files in the sources.list.d should end with .list.
I changed and it works .
