I have been using Ubuntu for a while now and I have been having all problems that I needed not to post a thread for to get answers, until I recently upgraded to Ubuntu Vivid.
Ubuntu is great but each time I run sudo apt-get update
I have a smooth run of update which return a notice of a duplicate in /var/lib/apt/lists
.
That is not even where the problem lies. What is very frustrating is that even when I run the proposed update, it still produces the same result.
I was using Ubuntu 14.04 then I upgraded to Ubuntu Utopic before upgrading to Vivid.
All I need is someone to please provide a compact without duplicates source list.
Please.
Thank you all in advance.
Edit: This is the new error I got from reloading the software-properties-gtk.

tool in the editing toolbar). This formats it as code, which will make it display more correctly, and has the additional benefit that code-formatted URLs are not automatically linkified--thus it won't make your post have more than two links in it. As for a screenshot, I highly recommend posting the text of the error message but if you wish to post an image you can upload it somewhere like postimage.org or imgur.com, give the link, and someone can add it.
