Ignoring file 'mono-xamarin.lit' in directory '/etc/apt/sources.list.d/' as it has an invalid filename extension

Please help me with a solution.

    In addition to the answer you were given, heres a short explanation. Files that belong in sources.list.d/ have to end with the file extension .list. More information can be found here. askubuntu.com/questions/82825/…

The solution is easy for you to achieve, rename the file in question to be a proper file or remove it. To rename it you can do the following command:

sudo mv /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mono-xamarin.lit /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mono-xamarin.list

Or for removing it

sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mono-xamarin.lit
