did you save the file after adding the repository line? post the contents of the file; (run the following from a terminal)

gksu gedit /etc/apt/sources.list

I think you need to run upgrade?:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install remastersys

Does remastersys show up in Synaptic?

if you're sure the line is there in /etc/apt/sources.list it still doesn't show up in the package manager after you refresh the software index, you could install it using the deb file.
http://www.geekconnection.org/remastersys/repository/karmic/remastersys_2.0.18-1_all.deb

save the file and double click to install it (on 10.10 and newer, the software center and in older releases gdebi would open up and prompt you to install it)

I installed remastersys earlier this week I believe I had to run the update several time to capture the hit and have it show on my system, might have been another 3rd party hard to say. Check the /apt/sources.list and make sure it is there.

Use the link ~Plue supplied, download & install from the .deb file. That's how I did it when I used remastersys, which worked quite well for me; or just keep trying to update, as wilee-nilee suggested.
