Hi Enrico, I commented these two lines :
....deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu oneiric partner
....deb-src http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu oneiric partner
and it works. But, is it the best solution?
Here is my sources.list file contents :

# See http://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes for how to upgrade to

# newer versions of the distribution.

deb-src http://fr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric main restricted

## Major bug fix updates produced after the final release of the
## distribution.
