Re: [PLUG] Default repositories in Debian 11

[Casey Bralla via plug <plug@lists.phillylinux.org>]

I always thought that the sources list would be the same, regardless of what packages were installed.

I generally like to install the minimum system at the start, then add only the packages I actually need.  If I am missing data in sources.list, that would be a significant factor in how I do installs in the future.

What did you add to /etc/apt/sources.list?

I asked my boss to give me a Debian 11 virtual machine to do some minor python api programming and I was surprised when I logged in it was missing repositories I need in /etc/apt/sources.list

I fixed it but I have never installed Debian 11 minimal at home and I found it odd that it was missing just regular Debian default repositories that I needed for python.  Can anyone comment if there are circumstances in a minimal install of Debian 11 that would result in missing default repositories.  It looks weird but I wanted to ask about it.  Thanks.
