E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.
The package freeciv-data was removed from extras-testing and bug 7220 has been closed. This was considered to be a repository bug rather than an Application Manager bug. But shouldn't the failure have been more graceful? Maybe ignore the bad package, or, at most, auto-disable the one repository. What happened instead was that the Application Manager lost almost all functionality.

Does anyone know whether apt-get still functioned with extras-testing enabled during the time that the Application Manager was broken?
