[ubuntu] VMware packages: malformed Release file

$

Hi,

I'm trying to install VMware tools in my Ubuntu 10.04 Server guest, following these instructions:

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware/Tools

However, after adding the repository and running an apt-get update, I get a "(malformed Release file?)" error:

Code:

W: Failed to fetch http://packages.vmware.com/tools/esx/5.0latest/ubuntu/dists/lucid/Release  Unable to find expected entry  restricted/binary-amd64/Packages in Meta-index file (malformed Release file?)
I've reviewed my /etc/apt/sources.list file multiple times and I can't find anything wrong in there.

If anyone has an idea of what else could be causing this, I would appreciate any feedback.

Thanks in advance.
