That was caused by btnx, their dev's made a small mistake that wasn't caught before it was added to the repo. As you can see it only takes one bad package to hurt the whole repo.

The quick fix is to comment out (add # in front of)
repoubuntusoftware.info_dists_harty_all_binary-i386_Packages
in /var/lib/apt/lists.
