Title:
  update-manager crashed with SystemError in marked_install():
  E:Malformed line 56 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list (dist parse),
  E:The list of sources could not be read.

Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  The error occured while I was install another programme (spyder). I
  presume it was a conflict in permissions to apt-get that caused the
  crash.
