Hey Guys,
I have been having some trouble installing the latest version of Firefox (3.6.6). My first command was:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-mozilla-daily/ppa
And that went smooth. Then I typed in:
sudo apt-get update
This is when I received this error output:
E: Malformed line 54 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list (dist parse)
So, I went to the /etc/apt/sources.list file and appended these two line to the end:
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-mozilla-daily/ppa/ubuntu lucid main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-mozilla-daily/ppa/ubuntu lucid main
When I retried the command (sudo apt-get/update), I received the same error message
Any advice? Thanks in advance! BTW here is the /etc/apt/sources.list file:
