Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: sudo
1)DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
DISTRIB_RELEASE=7.10
DISTRIB_CODENAME=gutsy
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 7.10"
2)??
3)Synaptic does not open either displaying this message: E: Type ‘sudo’ is not
known on line 84 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list
E: The list of sources could not be read.
Go to the repository dialogue to correct the problem.
E: _cache->open() failed, please report.
4)Very new to ubuntu, young, willing to learn but clueless: expected it
to open and display what i could update, and synaptic to function as it
should.
5)Instead update manager displayed the following error message: Could
not initialise the package information
An unresolvable problem occurred while initialising the package
information.
Please report this bug against the 'update-manager' package and include
the following error message:
'E:Type ‘sudo’ is not known on line 84 in source list
/etc/apt/sources.list, E:The list of sources could not be read.'
And synaptic said: E: Type ‘sudo’ is not known on line 84 in source list
/etc/apt/sources.list
E: The list of sources could not be read.
Go to the repository dialogue to correct the problem.
E: _cache->open() failed, please report.
Thanks in advance for any advice, even if a reinstall is necessary.
