[Bug 1005291] Re: Update Manager Bug

[Dave Lentz]

Which version of Ubuntu are you running? The following command will tell you if you're unsure:
lsb_release -a

You either need to delete the problematic line, or fix it if you still want to use sabnzbdplus. The line should not be:
t/jcfp/ppa/ubuntu natty main # disabled on upgrade to natty
but rather:
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/jcfp/ppa/ubuntu natty main # disabled on upgrade to natty

You can edit the file with this command:
gksu gedit /etc/apt/sources.list.d/jcfp-ppa-maverick.list

And when you're finished, run:
sudo apt-get update

Title:
  Update Manager Bug

Status in “apt” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I cannot Update/upgrade Ubuntu in any way, and I also can't install
  ppa-purge to remove to wayward apps.

  This is the error msg that I receive:

  ''Could not initialise the package information

  An unresolvable problem occurred while initialising the package
  information.

  Please report this bug for the 'update-manager' package and try to
  include the following error message:

  'E:Type ‘t/jcfp/ppa/ubuntu’ is not known on line 3 in source list
  /etc/apt/sources.list.d/jcfp-ppa-maverick.list'''

  Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance!
