Package: apt
Version: 0.3.11
Severity: normal

I got this weird error tonight. I suspect what happened is that the file was 
partially
downloaded earlier, then picked up now from where it left off then, but that 
the file
had been updated in the mean time. But that's just a theory, based on the fact 
that the 
percentage complete seemed to start at 57%, but then I'm not clear whether 
that's the
batch percentage complete or the individual file.

E: Error occured while processing aleph-dev (NewVersion1)
E: Problem with MergeList 
/var/state/apt/lists/http.us.debian.org_debian_dists_unstable_main_binary-i386_Packages
E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.

What's aleph-dev ?
