Re: Target Packages Configured Multiple Times

Just check sources list in "/etc/apt/sources.list.d/backports.list" and remove duplicate "deb" lines.

I only have 3 lines in the backports.list.

deb http://deb.debian.org/debian trixie-backports main contrib non-free-firmware
deb http://deb.debian.org/debian trixie-backports main
deb http://deb.debian.org/debian trixie-backports main contrib non-free

There is also a sources.list (etc/apt/sources.list) but there are no entries in it.

Re: Target Packages Configured Multiple Times

Keep only the first line "deb http://deb.debian.org/debian trixie-backports main contrib non-free-firmware", comment the others out prepending "#" . The empty etc/apt/sources.list is correct, keep it in.
