something must have gone wrong during a apt update && apt upgrade…

the

/etc/apt/sources.list

suddenly… is empty.

GNU Linux Debian 11 (bullseye) default sources.list

non-encrypted-transmission

deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ bullseye main
deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian/ bullseye main

deb http://security.debian.org/debian-security bullseye-security main contrib
deb-src http://security.debian.org/debian-security bullseye-security main contrib

deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ bullseye-updates main contrib
deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian/ bullseye-updates main contrib

encrypted-transmission

deb https://deb.debian.org/debian/ bullseye main
deb-src https://deb.debian.org/debian/ bullseye main

deb https://security.debian.org/debian-security bullseye-security main contrib
deb-src https://security.debian.org/debian-security bullseye-security main contrib

deb https://deb.debian.org/debian/ bullseye-updates main contrib
deb-src https://deb.debian.org/debian/ bullseye-updates main contrib

this only works if installed:

dpkg -l|grep apt-transport-https
ii  apt-transport-https  2.2.4  all transitional package for https support

it is possible, to replace deb.debian.org with a mirror from this list, idealy in the user’s country to keep transmission costs low.

For example a possible mirror for Germany could be: ftp.halifax.rwth-aachen.de
