Bug Description

Test Case
---------
- Open the Software & Updates tab
- Switch to the Other Software tab

There is an entry for
## Ubuntu distribution repository
##
## The following settings can be adjusted to configure which packages to use from Ubuntu.

etc.

What I Expected
---------------
That entry should not show. Selecting the entry and clicking Edit allows adjusting the main Ubuntu repository source settings which should not be allowed there since it is already possible to do that from the Ubuntu Software tab.
