Jessie has been archived; sources.list should be updated

see https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2019/03/msg00006.html

this breaks apt-get update on everything based on debian:jessie.

I just noticed the wiki LTS/Using [1] has been updated. This seems the jessie-update/ should not be set anymore in the /etc/apt/sources.list.

For those reading this that need a quick work-around, it suffices to add this to your dockerfile before any calls to apt-get update

RUN sed -i '/jessie-updates/d' /etc/apt/sources.list  # Now archived

👋 Will there be an update to the debian:jessie image to remove this? Jessie is still LTS, but LTS is not supposed to use -updates which is why it's missing.

Gah, I was hoping to wait until Debian 9.9 to regenerate because the regeneration is a bit heavy (all supported suites x all supported arches) and the downstream effect is even heavier (triggers rebuilds of anyone using Debian base images) so we try to avoid doing it more than ~once every 30 days, but this is warranted; I've got builds going now, should hopefully have this resolved later today.

PR up! docker-library/official-images#5609

For any who haven't seen it, we're (somewhat long-since now) live!

$ docker run --rm debian:jessie-slim grep '^deb ' /etc/apt/sources.list
deb http://deb.debian.org/debian jessie main
deb http://security.debian.org/debian-security jessie/updates main

(Also, please migrate off Jessie ASAP -- the clock is ticking!!)

This issue has been resolved to the extent it is going to be.

For further support/assistance, I'd recommend trying the Docker Community Forums, the Docker Community Slack, or Stack Overflow.
