Hi, I am running Debian unstable/testing, last updated a few days ago.
After running dselect upgrade today, whenever I try to install something using apt-get I get the following error : Reading Package Lists... Error! E: Unable to parse package file /var/lib/dpkg/status (1) E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened. Reading the package list fails at 1%. I have taken a quick look at the status file, but haven't got a clue what I would be looking for that could stop apt-get from parsing it. Dselect runs perfectly, but I don't know if it uses the status file itself. In the mean time, I cannot update anything on my computer using apt-get - what should I do? -- Jason Wood Persistence is a virtue
