[Bug 1566757] Re: preseed fails to add custom repos with apt-setup/local0/repository in xenial

@Octavi
Well, you found a workaround.
We are using a template based preseed file with the installation managment tool foreman (theforeman.org).
And we have different debian/ubuntu versions in our environment... 
I don't wanna script a workaround for every new os version because of new nasty bugs...
A dev involved in this projekt would have fixed it in 10 mins. Maybe the one who broke it even faster ;-)
