You can do one of two things here - either edit the file manually -
lines in there should have either deb, deb-src or # at the beginning
- nothing else. It's likely that the whole thing is wrong. <br>
<br>
The other option is to remove that file and redo the procedure to
add medibuntu - either run nautilus as root - gksudo nautilus
/etc/apt/sources.list.d<br>
<br>
and remove the file from there or do it from the command line - sudo
rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list<br>
<br>
<br>
Then re acquire the medibuntu repos using the command here -
