Description Grek336 2008-03-27 13:19:08 UTC
Version:           adept_manager 2.1 Cruiser (using KDE 3.5.8)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages
OS:                Linux

I have a german version!

When I added a new paket source with adept mangager to the list of sources (adept mangager: Adept -> Paketquellen verwalten/Software Sources -> Third-Party Software -> Hinzufügen/Add) the Input line is not checking for syntax errors (for example: "den http://de.packages.medibuntu.org/ hardy free non-free"). When I start Adept Mangager again, the start fails with an Error Message (German: Die APT-Datenbank lässt sich nicht öffnen. Dies kann durch eine unsaubere APT-Einrichtung oder einem ähnlichen Problem verursacht worden sein. Starten Sie apt-setup und apt-get update in einem Terminal und kontrollieren Sie dann, ob dies das Problem gelöst hat.) but this is not the real problem. The real problem is the wrong line in "/etc/apt/sources.list".

I wish me a syntax check similar to the check in Ubuntu GNOME Synaptic where I can not add a line with a wrong syntax. 

Thank you for your work. Greetings from Berlin.
