You're welcome.

Quote:I was able to piece my steps together after I posted this and resolved it for now.
There have been a few posts reporting this problem recently.  Can you explain what you found to help others and help us work out if a common error is being made ?

Quote:However why would it be listed if it would affect the update manager?
The software sources list is a protected system resource, but it needs to be flexible for normal operation.  Any changes have to be done by an authenticated user operating at privileged level.  However, a user can make mistakes.

Quote:What would happen if by accident this happens agaiin?
The update/upgrade process will not work but it will generate an error message showing what is wrong.

I would say look at SOFTWARE & UPDATES from whisker menu, select the OTHER software tab and unselect the repository that is causing the issue. Then when you X out it will refresh the cache and it should resolve.
