Here is what it says of debian-el with 'aptitude
show':

  The debian-el emacs addon has been elpafied.
  This dummy package helps ease transition from
  debian-el to elpa-debian-el.

And elpa-debian-el:

  apt-sources - major mode for editing Debian
  sources.list files; apt-utils - interface to APT
  (Debian package management); debian-bug - an Emacs
  command to submit a bug report; deb-view - view
  contents of Debian package, similarly to tar-mode;
  gnus-BTS - provides buttons for bug numbers seen in
  Gnus messages; preseed - major mode for editing
  debian-installer preseed files.

And yes, I can confirm that it works :) So
apt-sources has been moved between the packages
it seems.

Thanks!
