./build --download-dependencies qemu-buildroot fails with "E: You must put some 'source' URIs in your sources.list" on ubuntu 19.10

[RobertHenry6bev]

On a ubuntu 19.10 system, I checkout and do the basic thing. It fails. It is conceivable that my apt package system is somehow messed up.

./build --download-dependencies qemu-buildroot

.... gets error:

• sudo apt-get build-dep \ qemu \ ; Reading package lists...
