E: Malformed line 54 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list (dist parse)

    Your issue will block you from installing any software using apt-get because your sources.list files is not in the proper format.

    Please post the contents of your sources.list here and we can tell you how to fix it.

    Did you tried to put hash (#) in front of line 54 then run update?

    Try following steps:
    1. sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list

    save it, then run:
    1. sudo apt-get update

    This should solve this problem, anyway this is not solution, rather workaround, It will be great if You will be able to paste here output from:
    1. cat /etc/apt/sources.list

    I don't know that much about Ubuntu but i have installed phpMyAdmin on my RedHat using the manual installation and it always works. It's easy you can get full installation instruction from their wiki webpage.

    http://wiki.phpmyadmin.net/pma/Quick_Install

    and directly goto heading of "With setup script" and then start from there.


    Hope this helps
