[qubes-users] Debian onion repo v2 deprecation - any debian v3 onions alternatives

I have my debian based templates updating repos onionized through existing v2 onions. Tor Project announced that it will deprecate the v2 onions. Are there any alternative debian v3 onions for debian updates?

The Qubes onion repos are v3.
If you have updated apt-transport-tor, then you should already be using
v3 onions.

Take a look at https://onion.debian.org - Debian are v3 ready.

I onionized the debian and whonix templates long time ago. In my /etc/apt/sources.list and etc/apt/sources.list.d/qubes-r4.list in debian I can still see v2 onions only:

deb http://vwakviie2ienjx6t.onion/debian buster main contrib non-free
deb http://sgvtcaew4bxjd7ln.onion buster/updates main contrib non-free

Should I run sudo apt update apt-transport-tor in each debian-based template to include the v3 onions?

Not sure how to get the sources.list automatically updated with the new v3 onions.
You can copy+paste them manually, for a guide look here:

I didn´t even have apt-transport-tor installed in debian templates, but installing it does not add the v3 onions.

Updating the package does not automatically update the lists.
I meant that by updating, the REAME tells you v3 addresses to use. (At
least for bullseye, and probably backports, but I haven't checked.)
You always need to make these changes manually, I think.
