[Pkg-ia32-libs-maintainers] Bug#534979: ia32-apt-get: installation fails if sources.list is missing because sources.list.d/ is in use

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: ia32-apt-get
Version: 18
Severity: normal

Hi,

installation fails with the following error:

Setting up ia32-apt-get (18) ...
Converting for architecture amd64:
  sources.list
/usr/share/ia32-apt-get/parse-sources.list: line 60: /etc/apt/sources.list: No such file or directory
dpkg: error processing ia32-apt-get (--configure):
 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

I actually don't have a sources.list file because everything is
configured in sources.list.d/.
Looking at the other bug reports, this failure is probably a good thing
because my system is not messed up by modifying/destroying my sources.list.
