As of Ubuntu 24.04, the primary list of sources for APT moved to the /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ubuntu.sources file instead of the legacy /etc/apt/sources.list file, and was rewritten to make use of the deb822 format, which is based on RFC 822: https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/ubuntu-24-04-lts-noble-numbat-release-notes/39890#deb822-sources-management https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/spec-apt-deb822-sources-by-default/29333 https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/noble/man5/sources.list.5.html https://manpages.debian.org/bookworm/dpkg-dev/deb822.5.en.html As GitHub Actions are now migrating their "ubuntu-latest" runners to Ubuntu 24.04, we need to adjust the script our CI jobs use to build custom versions of Git so that it is able to fetch the necessary source packages it requires. We therefore update the script so it checks for the presence of an /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ubuntu.sources file, and if that exists, adds the "deb-src" archive type to the "Types:" lines of the entries in that file; otherwise, the script adds the "deb-src" type to the entries in the /etc/apt/sources.list file as it did previously.

/etc/apt/sources.list.d/ubuntu.sourcesfile instead of the legacy/etc/apt/sources.listfile, and was rewritten to make use of thedeb822format, which is based on RFC 822. From the Ubuntu 24.04 release notes:As GitHub Actions are now migrating their
ubuntu-latestrunners to Ubuntu 24.04, per actions/runner-images#10636, we need to adjust the script our CI jobs use to build custom versions of Git so that it is able to fetch the necessary source packages it requires.We therefore update the script so it checks for the presence of an
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/ubuntu.sourcesfile, and if that exists, adds thedeb-srcarchive type to theTypes:lines of the entries in that file; otherwise, the script adds thedeb-srctype to the entries in the/etc/apt/sources.listfile as it did previously.A successful run of our
Build with latest GitandBuild with earliest GitCI jobs on anubuntu-24.04runner demonstrates these changes work as expected.
