Hello friends
Consider the following content of the /etc/apt/sources.list
file
#deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 12.8.0 _Bookworm_ - Official amd64 DVD Binary-1 with firmware 20241109-11:05]/ bookworm contrib main non-free-firmware
deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ bookworm contrib main non-free-firmware non-free
deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian/ bookworm contrib main non-free-firmware non-free
deb http://security.debian.org/debian-security bookworm-security main non-free-firmware
deb-src http://security.debian.org/debian-security bookworm-security main non-free-firmware
# bookworm-updates, to get updates before a point release is made;
# see https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-reference/ch02.en.html#_updates_and_backports
deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ bookworm-updates main non-free-firmware
deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian/ bookworm-updates main non-free-firmware
It works perfectly fine
Now, according with some research
One
if is not need it compile software is valid comment (#) all the deb-src
lines. Thus any software can be installed through the apt
command. Therefore:
apt install <tool>
apt install ./<filename>.deb
A) Correct me if “One” is incorrect
Two
Consider if the /etc/apt/sources.list
file shown above is edited to comment all the deb-src
lines
Once done that and being curious: I want to know the effect when all the deb-src
lines were working:
- Is possible know what is the amount of code already downloaded due the
deb-src
lines? - Where is stored all the content downloaded due the
deb-src
lines? - How to delete all the content downloaded due the
deb-src
lines?
Thank You
