-.TH sources.list 5 "16 June 1998" "Debian GNU/Linux"
-.SH NAME
-sources.list \- package resource list for APT
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-The package resource list is used to locate archives of the package
-distribution system in use on the system. At this time, this manual page
-documents only the packaging system used by the Debian GNU/Linux system.
-.PP
-The source list is designed to support any number of active sources and a
-variety of source media. The file lists one source per line, with the
-most preferred source listed first. The format of each line is:
-.I type uri args
-The first item,
-.IR type ,
-determines the format for
-.IR args .
-.I uri
-is a Universal Resource Identifier (URI), which is a superset of the more
-specific and well-known Universal Resource Locator, or URL.
-.SS The deb type
-The
-.B deb
-type describes a typical two-level Debian archive,
-.IR distribution / component .
-Typically,
-.I distribution
-is one of
-.BR stable ,
-.BR unstable ,
-or
-.BR frozen ,
-while component is one of
-.BR main ,
-.BR contrib ,
-.BR non-free ,
-or
-.BR non-us .
-The format for a
-.I sources.list
-entry using the
-.B deb
-type is:
-.RS
-deb
-.I uri distribution
-.RI [ component
-.I ...
-]
-.RE
-The URI for the
-.B deb
-type must specify the base of the Debian distribution, from which
-.B APT
-will find the information it needs.
-.I distribution
-can specify an exact path, in which case the
-.IR component s
-must be omitted and
-.I distribution
-must end with a slash (/). This is useful for when only a particular
-sub-section of the archive denoted by the URI is of interest.
-If
-.I distribution
-does not specify an exact path, at least one
-.I component
-must be present.
-.PP
-.I distribution
-may also contain a variable, 
-.BR $(ARCH) ,
-which expands to the Debian architecture (i386, m68k, powerpc, ...)     
-used on the system. This permits archiecture-independent                
-.I sources.list
-files to be used.
-.PP
-Since only one distribution can be specified per line it may be necessary
-to have multiple lines for the same URI, if a subset of all available
-distributions or components at that location is desired.
-.B APT
-will sort the URI list after it has generated a complete set internally,
-and will collapse multiple references to the same Internet host, for
-instance, into a single connection, so that it does not inefficiently
-establish an FTP connection, close it, do something else, and then
-re-establish a connection to that same host. This feature is useful
-for accessing busy FTP sites with limits on the number of simultaneous
-anonymous users.
-.PP
-It is important to list sources in order of preference, with the most
-preferred source listed first. Typically this will result in sorting
-by speed from fastest to slowest (CD-ROM followed by hosts on a local
-network, followed by distant Internet hosts, for example).
-.SS URI specification
-The three currently recognized URI types are file, http, and ftp.
-.IP file
-The file scheme allows an arbitrary directory in the file system to be
-considered an archive. This is useful for NFS mounts and local mirrors or
-archives.
-.IP http
-The http scheme specifies an HTTP server for the archive. If an environment
-variable
-.B $http_proxy
-is set with the format
-.\" Ugly hackery ahead, nroff doesn't like three different typefaces in a
-.\" row with no spaces between anything.
-.BI http:// server : port /\c
-, the proxy server specified in
-.B $http_proxy
-will be used. Users of
-authenticated HTTP/1.1 proxies may use a string of the format
-.BI http:// user : pass @ server : port /\c
-.\" For some reason, starting the next line with \. didn't work. So we kludge.
-\&. Note that this is an insecure method of authentication.
-.IP ftp
-The ftp scheme specifies an FTP server for the archive. APT's FTP behavior
-is highly configurable; for more information see the
-.BR ftp.conf (5)
-manual page.
-.SH EXAMPLES
-.IP "deb file:/home/jason/debian stable main contrib non-free"
-Uses the archive stored locally (or NFS mounted) at
-.I /home/jason/debian
-for stable/main, stable/contrib, and stable/non-free.
-.IP "deb file:/home/jason/debian unstable main contrib non-free"
-As above, except this uses the unstable (development) distribution.
-.IP "deb http://www.debian.org/archive stable main"
-Uses HTTP to access the archive at www.debian.org, and uses only the
-stable/main area.
-.IP "deb ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian stable contrib"
-Uses FTP to access the archive at ftp.debian.org, under the debian
-directory, and uses only the stable/contrib area.
-.IP "deb ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian unstable contrib"
-Uses FTP to access the archive at ftp.debian.org, under the debian
-directory, and uses only the unstable/contrib area. If this line appears as
-well as the one in the previous example in
-.IR sources.list ,
-a single FTP session will be used for both resource lines.
-.IP "deb ftp://nonus.debian.org/debian-non-US unstable/binary-i386/"
-Uses FTP to access the archive at nonus.debian.org, under the debian-non-US
-directory, and uses only files found under unstable/binary-i386.
-.IP "deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian-non-US unstable/binary-$(ARCH)/"
-Uses HTTP to access the archive at nonus.debian.org, under the
-debian-non-US directory, and uses only files found under
-unstable/binary-i386 on i386 machines, unstable/binary-m68k on m68k, and so
-forth for other supported architectures.
