- As without seeing the file I do not know if the lines I am going to remove has the pattern of [8] , but what I know is lan5:5 . Hope you got it.

Code:
BROADCAST_ADDRESS[5]="10.140.236.255"
INTERFACE_STATE[5]="up"
DHCP_ENABLE[5]="0"
INTERFACE_MODULES[5]=""
ROUTE_DESTINATION[2]=default
ROUTE_GATEWAY[2]=10.40.118.4
ROUTE_COUNT[2]=1
INTERFACE_NAME[8]="lan5:5"
IP_ADDRESS[8]="10.140.220.62"
SUBNET_MASK[8]="255.255.255.0"
BROADCAST_ADDRESS[8]="10.140.220.255"
INTERFACE_STATE[8]="up"
DHCP_ENABLE[8]="0"
INTERFACE_MODULES[8]=""
INTERFACE_NAME[10]="lan5:7"
IP_ADDRESS[10]="10.140.239.62"
SUBNET_MASK[10]="255.255.255.0"
BROADCAST_ADDRESS[10]="10.140.239.255"
INTERFACE_STATE[10]="up"
DHCP_ENABLE[10]="0"

I'm sorry, but I don't understand your requirements. It is obvious that we have a language barrier. Are you saying that you:
  1. want to find a line that contains lan5:5,
  2. find a digit string between [ and ] on that line, and then
  3. remove every line in the file that contains that digit string between [ and ]?

cdbs-edit-patch

CDBS-EDIT-PATCH(1)                                              CDBS Documentation                                              CDBS-EDIT-PATCH(1)

NAME

       cdbs-edit-patch - create or edit a CDBS simple-patchsys.mk patch

SYNOPSIS

       cdbs-edit-patch patchname

DESCRIPTION

       cdbs-edit-patch  creates  or edits patches for use by the CDBS simple-patchsys.mk patch system.  For more information about CDBS please see
       the documentation under /usr/share/doc/cdbs/.

       When patchname exists, cdbs-edit-patch will set up a temporary working source tree, apply all patches up to and including patchname in lex-
       icographic  order,  and  spawn  an  interactive shell for the developer.  The developer can then edit files in this working tree.  When the
       developer is done and exits the shell, cdbs-edit-patch updates patchname to reflect the changes made.  To abort the process from the inter-
       active shell, exit with a nonzero exit value.

       When patchname does not exist, cdbs-edit-patch will assume that a new patch should be created.  As with the above scenario, cdbs-edit-patch
       will first create a temporary working source tree and apply all patches up to the new patch in lexicographic  order.   When  the  shell  is
       quit, cdbs-edit-patch will create patchname.
