My apt directory contains an additional "lists" directory containing<br>
package index lists for all configured repositories.<br>
<br>
Maybe you could create it ("mkdir -p /var/lib/apt/lists/"), run "apt-get<br>
update", "aptitude update" or whatever Maemos command for updating the<br>
package lists from the repositories may be and see if that helps?<br>
<br>
