Whilst debugging Virtualmin/Lets-Encrypt/DNSSEC issues (mentioned in another thread) on Ubuntu 18.04 I needed to search the list of files installed by the packages there-in so added an entry to the APT sources file and tried to update the lists but hit an error:
# cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/virtualmin.list
deb http://software.virtualmin.com/gpl/ubuntu virtualmin-universal main
deb-src http://software.virtualmin.com/gpl/ubuntu virtualmin-universal main
# apt-file update
...
W: Skipping acquire of configured file 'main/source/Sources' as repository 'http://software.virtualmin.com/gpl/ubuntu virtualmin-universal InRelease' does not seem to provide it (sources.list entry misspelt?)
Looking at the directory with the browser shows the Sources.* files there haven't been updated since 2010 and there is no GPG signature inline (InRelease) or external (.gpg).

It would be good to ensure the matching source-code and supporting package lists for the archive is easily available in this way.
