apt: wrong sources at /usr/share/doc/apt/examples/sources.list

It is useful to run restore /etc/apt/sources.list if you break it by running: sudo cp /usr/share/doc/apt/examples/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list

However, in Trisquel 11, /usr/share/doc/apt/examples/sources.list is incorrectly listing the version codename "hirsute" (Ubuntu 21.04 (Hirsute Hippo)):

# See sources.list(5) manpage for more information
# Remember that CD-ROMs, DVDs and such are managed through the apt-cdrom tool.
deb http://es.archive.trisquel.org/trisquel hirsute main
deb-src http://es.archive.trisquel.org/trisquel hirsute main

deb http://es.archive.trisquel.org/trisquel hirsute-security main
deb-src http://es.archive.trisquel.org/trisquel hirsute-security main

deb http://es.archive.trisquel.org/trisquel hirsute-updates main
deb-src http://es.archive.trisquel.org/trisquel hirsute-updates main

Suggestion

Copy /etc/apt/sources.list (this one is using "es" sub-domain so I think it's wrong: https://gitlab.trisquel.org/trisquel/package-helpers/-/blob/aramo/helpers/DATA/apt/trisquel/sources.list.in) to /usr/share/doc/apt/examples/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list

changed title from Replace "hirsute" with $VERSION_CODENAME in /usr/share/doc/apt/examples/sources.list to {+Copy https://gitlab.trisquel.org/trisquel/package-helpers/-/blob/aramo/helpers/DATA/apt/trisquel/sources.list.in to+} /usr/share/doc/apt/examples/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list

I guess "es.archive." should be replaced with "archive." in all files. For example: https://gitlab.trisquel.org/trisquel/package-helpers/-/blob/aramo/helpers/DATA/apt/trisquel/apt-vendor.ent

I don't know how to make a global search to find all files that contain "http://es." and "https://es."

Those are the only remaining ones. Still they don't get passed while the files are parsed, so yeah we can fix that, still you'll see no change on the binaries.

It will be addressed, but no new release for now.

Got fixed by: d76c85c7

Very good.

But there's one final problem. The original issue was that "hirsute" occured in a file, but it was never replaced:
