[Jimmy Biel]

Public bug reported:

(title translated from German: "Packetinformationen konnten nicht initialisiert werden")
I got this message on boot-up and it says i should include the following into this report:
E:can not open /var/lib/apt/lists/de.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_focal-backports_InRelease - fopen (13: Keine Berechtigung), E:Die Paketliste oder die Statusdatei konnte nicht eingelesen oder geöffnet werden.

"Keine Berechtigung" = Access denied
"Die Paketliste oder die Statusdatei konnte nicht eingelesen oder geöffnet werden." = The packagelist or statusfile could not be read or opened.

I am using this ubuntu version: Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS
I did not want to perform a distribution upgrade

As to 3) and 4)
i did not expect anything, as i just started the computer and got the error described above.
