Bug Description

The old way of using sources.list.d to store the medibuntu.list file is better I think. Please consider using this script instead.

sudo touch /etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list && \
echo "deb http://packages.medibuntu.org/ dapper free non-free" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list && \
wget -q http://packages.medibuntu.org/medibuntu-key.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add - && sudo apt-get update

Hi,

Thanks for your bug report.
We dropped the sources.list.d method since some people complained. Very few people are aware of it, they only think to the /etc/apt/sources.list and do not find medibuntu when they look into it, therefore they re-add medibuntu to their sources.list, and it makes duplicates entries.

So at the moment I am not very fond of going back to the old method.

Hi,

The old method is still available on this page: http://www.medibuntu.org/repository-old.php
But we are going to keep the new one, for the reasons stated above.

Cheers.
