Title:
  An unresolvable problem occurred while initializing the package
  information; "E:Type 'ain' is not known on line 3 in source list
  /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ehoover-compholio-precise.list"

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

Bug description:
  I'm using Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS.
  I installed the Netflix app a few hours ago, as well as the Q4Wine and Winetricks apps.  When I booted up  just now, the caution-icon appeared on the desktop; mousing over it showed the message, "A problem occurred when checking for the updates."  So I ran Update Manager and got the following message:

  "Could not initialize the package information

  An unresolvable problem occurred while initializing the package
  information.

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

  'E:Type 'ain' is not known on line 3 in source list
  /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ehoover-compholio-precise.list'`".

  I'm guessing that "ehoover-compholio" is the source for the Netflix
  app?  If so, what would you suggest, please?
