Source list for Q4OS 2.7 Trinity

Hi there,

I might delete the update list for 2.7, so when I press apt-get update i get nothing like list update, or when I try to install whatever software I get:

Reading package lists... Done
***********:~$ sudo apt-get install gedit
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package gedit

How to get the right source list. Thanks in advance!

P.S. I deleted it because of repo error of a third party software, but I now do not know how to recover.

Commands I used:

sudo rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/* debian
sudo rm -rf /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*

I added this to sources.list

http://deb.debian.org/debian stretch main contrib non-free
deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian stretch main contrib non-free

deb http://deb.debian.org/debian-security/ stretch/updates main contrib non-free
deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian-security/ stretch/updates main contrib non$

deb http://deb.debian.org/debian stretch-updates main contrib non-free
deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian stretch-updates main contrib non-free

Is it enough to recover the original state?

You can boot from Q4OS Live CD, and check sources.list file, which exists there. You can get Live CD here: https://www.q4os.org/downloads3.html
