I like the proposed patch as it is fairly non-invasive. However, I see two issues with it. - You cannot add multiple override suites This is especially needed for the original use case. For example, you want to be able to simultaneously add a non-free, an experimental and an experimental/non-free repo. - You cannot add an override suite that is on a different mirror This seems relevant in your use case. I'd guess it would be nice to be able to use a standard Debian mirror for regular components and an HP mirror for the add-ons. May be a lot more complex to implement though. Technical comment: before this patch is committed, the indentation should be fixed; currently the code inside the new loop is not indented. Cheers, FJP
