title: How to fix parse-error with Raspberry Pi?
body: <p>I tried to install <code>Lighttpd</code>, but I got this error:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>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.</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>So, I've searched on the internet and tried to remove and reload the package lists:</p>
  
  <blockquote>

  <p>How to fix this error? Updating the lists, like recommended in many forums, doesn't work, seeing the quote above.</p>
