package-installs-apt-sources
Debian packages should not install files under
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/ or install an
/etc/apt/sources.list file.
The selection of installation sources is under the control of the local administrator. Packages are generally not allowed to change the administrator's choices.
As a limited exception for the convenience of administrators,
packages whose names end in the clearly named
-apt-source are permitted to install such files.
For more information please consult:
- the sources.list(5) manual page
