[Bug 2033949] Re: Does not work with sources in deb822 format

[Julian Andres Klode]

For 23.10, we will support deb822 sources for third party sources,
especially PPAs, but due to complex interactions did not fully manage to
create a decent experience for ubuntu.sources so far..

So in my local git branches:

The bits I got working correctly still ended up splitting paragraphs
into multiple ones and not merging them back again, so if you enabled a
component and disabled it again, you suddenly had two paragraphs.

There's missing bits still were it writes to sources.list if you edit
ubuntu.sources, actually generates duplicate entries and then stops
working.

** Changed in: software-properties (Ubuntu Mantic)
       Status: Fix Released => In Progress

** Summary changed:

- Does not work with sources in deb822 format
+ Does not work with Ubuntu sources in deb822 format
