Xubuntu:Edgy - how to find the most recent sources.list

I completely removed gthumb using Synaptic package manager because I had intended to reinstall it fresh. That was my first mistake because now I can't seem to reinstall it. When attempting:

jagibbs@Sacrifice:~$ sudo apt-get install gthumb


I get:

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package gthumb is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package gthumb has no installation candidate

so then I try: [jagibbs@Sacrifice:~$ sudo apt-get update]

and get:

jagibbs@Sacrifice:~$ sudo apt-get update
E: Malformed line 15 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list (dist parse)
jagibbs@Sacrifice:~$ sudo mousepad /etc/apt/sources.list
jagibbs@Sacrifice:~$ sudo mousepad /etc/apt/sources.list
jagibbs@Sacrifice:~$ sudo apt-get update

So now I figure my repositories are not up to date, although I'm not sure how to find the most up to date and working repositories. How can so many repositories be not found? I'm running Xubuntu 6.10 (Edgy I think). Any ideas on how to get the repositories correct?? I really have found nothing too useful for my particular question online regarding repositories. In addition, I figured I'd just do a dist upgrade to start fresh...of course I can't do that either with the repositories as they are.

My current sources.list is:


deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ edgy main universe

## Major bug fix updates produced after the final release of the
## distribution.
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ edgy-updates main universe

## Uncomment the following two lines to add software from the 'universe'
## repository.
## N.B. software from this repository is ENTIRELY UNSUPPORTED by the Ubuntu
## team, and may not be under a free licence. Please satisfy yourself as to
## your rights to use the software. Also, please note that software in
## universe WILL NOT receive any review or updates from the Ubuntu security
## team.
## deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ edgy

## Uncomment the following two lines to add software from the 'backports'
## repository.
## N.B. software from this repository may not have been tested as
## extensively as that contained in the main release, although it includes
## newer versions of some applications which may provide useful features.
## Also, please note that software in backports WILL NOT receive any review
## or updates from the Ubuntu security team.
deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ edgy-backports main restricted universe multiverse

thanks for any suggestions!

Hmm, actually I think I may be running Xubuntu 7.10 the Gutsy Gibbon. why would my sources.list still reference Edgy? I did a clean install from a cd ISO for 7.10 and have never changed my sources.list manually afterwards.
