[SOLVED] Missing repositories in a fresh ISO install.

I installed from the ISO (in a virtualbox VM), with literally only these steps:

1) non-graphic install.

2) went through the welcome screen. Failed Internet connection test.

3) Fixed Internet connection

4) Continued bl-welcome. I wasn't installing anything until the Java runtime screen. This one (and several others) failed. The details are basically missing dependencies (openjdk-7-jre icedtea-7-plugin...

5) Finished the bl-welcome screen with many other errors.

After that, I tried to install something as simple as git, and it's not found. I cat my /etc/apt/sources.list:

deb http://security.debian.org/ jessie/updates main contrib non-free

And that's it (there were two comments but I'm transcribing all this data). I cat my /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*:

bunsen.list: deb http://pkg.bunsenlabs.org/debian bunsen-hydrogen main

So the questions are:
A) What happened?
B) Should I try to fix it? Would that help someone debug this? I can just reinstall from scratch, I have very little invested so far in this.

Re: [SOLVED] Missing repositories in a fresh ISO install.

Also, everything otherwise appears to work just fine. I see the desktop, I can run programs (if they are installed) and I can use iceweasel, conky, libreoffice, terminator...

Re: [SOLVED] Missing repositories in a fresh ISO install.

I think that you chose not to set up an apt network mirror during the install (default is "Yes"), so you don't have any jessie main sources. You only have what came on the iso. This is what it should look like after a fresh install:

# 

# deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 8 _Jessie_ - Official Snapshot amd64 LIVE/INSTALL Binary 20150909-03:19]/ jessie contrib main non-free

# deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 8 _Jessie_ - Official Snapshot amd64 LIVE/INSTALL Binary 20150909-03:19]/ jessie contrib main non-free

deb http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian/ jessie main
#deb-src http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian/ jessie main

deb http://security.debian.org/ jessie/updates main contrib non-free
#deb-src http://security.debian.org/ jessie/updates main contrib non-free

# jessie-updates, previously known as 'volatile'
deb http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian/ jessie-updates main contrib non-free
#deb-src http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian/ jessie-updates main contrib non-free

Adjust your mirror to suit.

Oh is that what that does. I forgot I even answered that question.

Thanks.

If you edit your the title of your first post, and add [SOLVED] it may help all the others who do the same thing (You aren't alone with this BTW!)
