Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: software-properties-kde
The Software Properties dialog used Kubuntu Feisty's adept does not seem
to check whether an apt line added under "Third-Party-Software" is
valid, but simply adds everything you enter as a new line in
sources.list. The consequence is that sources.list is messed up and
fetching updates fails.

it would be a good idea to introduce a mechanism that checks validity of
added repository-lines and a notification which tells the user to change
a malformed line before adding it.

** Affects: software-properties (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Unconfirmed
