Trying to fix a broken repository. Clicking "software sources" from administration menu doesn't do anything, and also Repositories from the Synaptic menu doesn't do anything either.

Bug Description
Binary package hint: synaptic
First noticed an exclamation mark icon on the system tray, and a mouse hover details explain that I have a broken/missing source in my repositories. So instead of removing that source in my repository list, I can't open the list from Synaptic or in the Administration Gnome Menu either. I do not know of a command to do so, or fix the broken link.

I checked this as a security vulnerability bug, because I figure not being able to access updates can possibly pose as a threat towards the operating system in the future.
