Bug Description
When calling ubuntu-vm-builder with <<--components main,universe>> option, it fails with this rather cryptic error :

Without any --components option it works alright.
With << --components "main,universe" >> it also fails.
With << --components main >>, it also fails.

Bug 187994 links the cryptic error to a malformed sources.list file, so I suppose specifying --components leads to a malformed sources.list file... though it's not obvious from the code why it would.
