I'm relatively new to Ubuntu, and am trying to do an application update in Intrepid with the end goal of upgrading up to Lucid Lynx.
Earlier, in my sources.list, I had changed archive.ubuntu.com to old-releases.ubuntu.com, as suggested on a couple other threads, to address 404 Not Found errors from Intepid no longer being supported. I was able to install a couple of applications immediately afterwards.
Now when I run Update Manager I get the following messages:
Could not download all repository indexes
Failed to fetch http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/intrepid/Release Unable to find expected entry deb-src/binary-i386/Packages in Meta-index file (malformed Release file?)

Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
The repository may no longer be available or could not be contacted because of network problems. If available an older version of the failed index will be used. Otherwise the repository will be ignored. Check your network connection and ensure the repository address in the preferences is correct.
I tried from the command line:
sudo apt-get update
as suggested on another thread, and got similar errors:

E: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
I tried switching to other mirrors, which didn't help. Using defaults (System > Administration > Software Sources > Authentication, Restore Defaults) seems to have no effect either; it still seems to use my sources.list file (at least, the error messages still refer to old-releases, etc).
My sources.list file looks like this:
