How do I fix “malformed line” errors in sources.list?

I am getting an error message when I run the Update Manager:

E:Malformed line 59 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list (dist parse)

Any ideas on how to resolve this issue?

I also had the same error and had to remove the line 59 and 60 to solve the problem. Not sure if it affects any other update process. The contents of the line 59-60 are:

deb http://archive.canonical.com/lucid partner
deb-src http://archive.canonical.com/lucid partner

Probably you are mixing repositories from different distributions.

You should post your sources.list file or you can try this link, it might help you: E:Malformed line 52 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list (URI), E:The list of sources
