Hi,

1: How to reproduce? If not possible, at least a description of what were you doing, in which mode (installer, updater, manager)...
2: Could you please include terminal output of adept? (Ie. run it from a terminal and paste the output here.)

Thanks.

I think this is the same problem

Just before I had this problem, I try to set this in my third-software-tab 
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-members-kde4/ubuntu intrepid main. After this I closed adept and when I try to start Adept I get the same problem. After this, I tried if I could start other package managers. These programs didn't start as well. 

Starting Adept give this:

I am not sure if this is the same problem, but I think so.

The problem is that Adept crashes when non-valid entries are in /etc/apt/sources.list

Hey Thomas,

I tried what you suggested and my gdebi installer stated, " my software index is broken.  In the Konsole it stated, "that the malformed line 55 in the /etc/apt/sources.list cannot be read.  Plus I cannot open adept at all or add/remove either. So, is this the same problem like the others.  I really damage the installer application none of them will work. Only from Konsole can I do anything.  So, what sudo command should I use to correct this issue.

Thanks

This is my Adept's bug report for the crash and Software Index is broken I have a major problem that can only be solved in Konsole.  So, I need to know what sudo commands I need to do to fix this Thanks,

thanks for letting me know that this is a known bug, i hope it's fixed in the next upgrade. but that doesn't really help me at all. how do i fix it?

@chasemyers@gmail.com (comment 20): you need to review your sources.list file and try to remove the invalid line. Using the command line app "apt-get" to install some package should complain about that invalid line (that probably was manually added)
Thanks

Hey guys! Thats what I did: I used the terminal to get to sources.list - etc/apt/sources.list
Then I made a sudo kwrite sources.list, gave it a password, and finally got the file opened. Then, I removed manually the third party sources I had configured using adept. In my case, it was wicd. That made it work ok! Bye

Folks,

I don't know if I missed something on this thread, has this issue been resolved?  I just came across this issue today 06/20/2009 after changing third party options.  I have tried change etc/apt/sources.list since I had a backup but it still does not work.  I keep getting error "Adept Manager The KDE Crash Handler" Is there a solution to this issue?

look forward to your comments.

Hi. AFAIK Adept is not going to be developed anymore so I guess this bug is not going to be fixed. The workaround was to remove the invalid entries from the sources.list file (IIRC, doing a "apt-get" operation you will get which entry is invalid, so you can remove it).
May be your crash is a different one (and the root cause is different). Have you compared the backtraces?
Regards

It seems the same ... (anyways all backtrace are lacking some info)

*** Bug 202073 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

I have the same problem - I think- . I wanted to install mozilla firefox, and the research within Adept installer didn't give result, so I had copied the link of Mozilla installation file in the ressources tab of Adept and after that, Adept stopped running and i didn't be able to restart it. I tried to apply methods presented above to modifiy my sources.list but i didn't be able for the following problem:
When i tape "sudo /etc/apt/sources.list", i find an invite to tape my password but, i cannot type it at all. 
youssef@youssef-laptop:~$ sudo /etc/apt/sources.list
[sudo] password for youssef:

Is this an other problem or is a simple question of wrong setting in my terminal..

At the same time i cannot use any "apt-get" command (update, check, remove (i tried to remove "adept"),...) So actually i cannot complete the installation of software in my Kubuntu 8.10 or  upgrade to  9.4 distribution.

Thank you to help me.

Youssef

I put there the error details  from the crash report :
