The command sudo apt-get update returns 

E: Malformed line 54 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list (dist parse)

as output. Please help me to solve this issue.

Here are lines 53 and 54 in the source list:

deb-src http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu lucid-security multiverse

  • Why did you edit this by hand? Always make sure you have a backup of the file to compare against if you have issues. And please keep in mind that 10.04 is an older unsupported release (desktop, not server).

    This question appears to be off-topic because it is about an unsupported End-of-Life release. 10.04 Desktop edition was marked end-of-life at May 9, 2013 and the partner repository isn't updated anymore for Lucid since then. I do recognize that your question is not strictly about that, though (so I provided an answer).
