[Dave Jones <dave.jones@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have an updated patch available from the following branch for focal:

    https://code.launchpad.net/~waveform/ubuntu/+source/python-apt/+git
/python-apt/+ref/fix-dupe-ppa


Currently building a test package in the following PPA:

    https://launchpad.net/~waveform/+archive/ubuntu/python-apt/+packages

I realize most of the people affected by this are on older
distributions, so I'm just in the process of back-porting the patch to
bionic, xenial, and trusty, and will provide test builds in the same PPA
once that's done.

  That deb-src line should have stayed commented out, and not been
  duplicated. (Commented deb lines should of course be uncommented, as
  already fixed per https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python-
  apt/+bug/1042916 .)
