Hi there,
Just went to update using the 10.10 Meerkat Beta and got this lovely
little bit:
> Could not initialize the package information

Just to be sure, I switched servers from 'United States' to 'Main' and
received this:
> E: Malformed 3rd word in the Status line
> E: Error occurred while processing openoffice.org-report-builder-bin
> (UsePackage2)
> E: Problem with MergeList /var/lib/dpkg/status

Suspecting it has to do with OpenOffice.org's name change to LibreOffice
and, thus, changing the repository. Just a guess. Thought I'd let you
know.
