[Bug 803040] Re: Cannot update or install packages

[Torsten Spindler]

In both cases the lists directory contains files that cannot be read /
parsed by apt. Removing these files should fix the situation, albeit if
they become corrupted again (download problem?), the problem will appear
again. Did removing these files fix the problem for you eventually?
