How to install BareOS on Ubuntu?

Many repository directories are organized as dists, pool etc. And anyone can simply edit sources.list file in order to add new repo.

I need to add an extraordinarily structured repo like this.

How can I add this repo without supplying any release and repo name?

(It seems that, according to given answer, adding / at the end works, instead of release name repo name)

From official documentation we can use the following method:

2.3.3 Install on Debian based Linux Distributions

Debian / Ubuntu

Bareos Version >= 15.2.0 requires the Jansson library package. On Ubuntu is it available in Ubuntu Universe. In Debian, is it included in the main repository.

#
# define parameter
#
DIST=Debian_9.0
# or
# DIST=Debian_8.0
# DIST=xUbuntu_16.04
# DIST=xUbuntu_14.04
# DIST=xUbuntu_12.04
RELEASE=release/17.2/
# or
# RELEASE=release/latest/
# RELEASE=experimental/nightly/
URL=
# add the Bareos repository
printf "deb $URL /\n" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/bareos.list
# add package key
wget -q $URL/Release.key -O- | apt-key add -
# install Bareos packages
apt-get update
apt-get install bareos bareos-database-postgresql

Mentioned Jansson library is packaged on Ubuntu.
