sed magic

I want to become an expert @ using sed, but i do not have enough time...

Atm I have a repository in my apt/sources.list but it is commented out since i do not want to install packages from it (backtrack repository) except the exploitdb package.

I would like make a command, lets say "update-exploitdb" which uncomments the specific repository at my apt/sources.list (using sed probably), then updates, and then re-installs the exploitdb package at the newest version. After doing that, the backtrack repository is commented again.

So, i would like to know the way to do this text edit with sed...

Code:

############################################### BACKTRACK REPOS
#deb http://archive.offensive-security.com pwnsauce main microverse restricted universe multiverse


I would appreciate any help..
