apt sources may be defined in any of `/etc/apt/sources.list`, `/etc/apt/sources.list.d/*.list`, or `/etc/apt/sources.list.d/*.sources`. When disabling system repositories, move all of these aside rather than only `/etc/apt/sources.list`. This fixes integration test failures in certain corner cases in Debian's CI environment: when testing reverse-dependencies, we use a testbed with most packages from the testing suite but some packages pinned from unstable. The latter are currently set up using `/etc/apt/sources.list.d/*.list`, and as a result the `apt` integration tests accidentally upgraded the testbed to unstable in the middle of the test run, causing confusion in later tests.

@cjwatson Can you rebase your patch on devel? Can we get this patch merged? It helps us in Debian downstream, and is also useful for other Debian-based distros running the tests. |
