This bug is NOT fixed yet!

I am getting:

W: Duplicate sources.list entry http://ppa.launchpad.net/xxxxx oneiric/main amd64 Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/ppa.launchpad.net_xxxxx_dists_oneiric_main_binary-amd64_Packages)
W: Duplicate sources.list entry http://ppa.launchpad.net/xxxxx/ubuntu/ oneiric/main i386 Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/ppa.launchpad.net_xxxxx_dists_oneiric_main_binary-i386_Packages)
W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems

After running sudo apt-get update, this problem is not resolved.

(seems like some are not listed here)

Corrective measure needed:
Implement a check to see if any PPA was already added prior to adding it to the system.
