problem with repo docky-core-ppa-lucid.list

[Santiago]

An Italian user report me this error yesterday night:

E: Tipo "n" non riconosciuto alla riga 2 nel file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docky-core-ppa-lucid.list
E: Impossibile leggere l'elenco delle sorgenti.
Correggere il problema nella configurazione del repository.
E: _cache->open() failed, please report.

it says that there is an error in the second line of the file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docky-core-ppa-lucid.list
so it's impossible to read the suorce files.
I don't know if is a problem of the repository, anyway I report it here.

The Docky PPA is added with the following command: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:docky-core/ppa

So this is not an issue from with this script.

I found out what caused this -> it's an error in the "add-apt-repository" command.

Here is how to fix it:

sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docky-core-ppa-lucid.list

In this file you'll see two lines: one that starts with "deb...." and one with just a letter "n". Remove the line with just the letter "n" (I have no idea why the add-apt-repository adds that letter), save the file and then run:

sudo apt-get update

Now everything should be fine.
