Bug Description
Hello, I'm getting the following error message when trying to use the update manager (similar messages appear with apt-get and synaptic):
Could not initialize the package information
A unresolvable problem occurred while initializing the package information.
Please report this bug against the 'update-manager' package and include the following error message:
'E:Malformed Status line, no 3rd word, E:Error occurred while processing libcamel1.2-11 (UsePackage2), E:Problem with MergeList /var/lib/
This is on a newly installed 8.04 64 bit Ubuntu system, though I believe I'm having hard drive problems. I don't know if they would be related issues. Let me know if you need more info. Thanks.
Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Could you please attach the files in /var/log/ dist-upgrade to this bug report?
This will greatly aid us in tracking down your problem.
