The install populated /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ with *absolutely nothing.* 
This in, now, installation on three different machines. Aso when I did 
sudo apt install mc, I got the no such package available error, so it's 
not as if they hid it somewhere else.

I literally emailed my sources.list to myself to import it into the second 
and third machines.
