Here's my sources.list & extra .list file.  It looks like I did have a deb
line in the sources.list file for karmic.  I think I did that before reading
about the sources.list.d directory.  Oh well.  Doesn't look like it's a bug
though.

I'm getting some clicking on my laptop's hard drive when I upgraded to
karmic.  That's why I'd like to downgrade.  It's a Dell e6400.  Thanks for
everyone's help.  I go ahead and grab a cd and reinstall.
