Thnx for this fix, it worked. I had the same problem and removed these 2 double entries:

deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu precise partner
deb-src http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu precise partner

S="/etc/apt/sources.list" ; S2="$S ${S}.d/*.list" ; grep -b "^deb`cat $S2 | grep -i "^deb[[:space:]]http" | sort | uniq -dc | sed -e 's;[[:space:]]\+[[:digit:]]\+[[:space:]]\+deb\(.\+$\);\1;g'`$" $S2

hi,
I have the same problem but I do not have this string in the file, so I do not know what to remove.

sorry for confusion, I have found it and all works.
Thank you.
