I'm trying to get wine. I've been doing instructions from https://wiki.winehq.org/Ubuntu and on
sudo apt update
I've seen "E: The repository 'cdrom ..." with red "E". Just several minutes before in output of sudo apt update
it was ordinary white same as the rest of output. Between "normal" and red the only commands I did were downloading w/out install sudo apt-get install -d somepackage
and ones from the wine page.
I wanted to revisit/recheck what I've done and now only after history
and cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq-jammy.sources
output of sudo apt update
is all white again.
Any idea what happened? What caused the colored output to apprear? I'm wary of glitches in the system I use, I want to find out the cause. Web search for colored output of apt found some solutions involving scripts etc., how adding sources and keys resulted in transient color?

Terminal contents (actually more commands than I mentioned ealier, still no idea how that resulted in color):
35 sudo apt-get update
36 sudo apt-get install -d somepackage
37 eval $(apt-config shell CACHE Dir::Cache)
38 eval $(apt-config shell ARCHIVES Dir::Cache::archives)
39 # from man bash:
40 # brace { after $ "serve to protect the variable to be expanded from characters immediately following it which could be interpreted as part of the name."
41 debs_cache_folder=/${CACHE}/${ARCHIVES}
42 echo $debs_cache_folder
