Bug Description
Update-manager told me:
"An unresolvable problem occurred while initializing the package information.
Please report this bug against the 'update-manager' package and include the following error message:
E:can not open /var/lib/
(This might have occured when I pressed stop to abort downloading new package information (the "apt update" part))
