Bug Description

I was doing a very quick reinstall, so I was adding sources as the update manager was working as well. When I finished adding extra third party software, the Software Sources could not finish what it was doing. Obviously. I should have known. But, when Update Manager finished, it was not able to read the sources list anymore:

Ubuntu 9.04, fresh install

Error message:

'E:Malformed line 55 in source list /etc/apt/sourses.list (dist pars), E:The list of sources could not be read.'

Not really a bug, but one of those things...

edit: easy to resolve, just remove the last extra software in the Third-Party Software tab in Software Sources.

Maybe there should be a restriction running those apps at the same time?
