I think it means that a package-list file on your system is non-existent,
incomplete or corrupt, due to an interrupted download, a mirror problem,
filesystem corruption or whatever. It can normally be fixed by re-running
apt-get update. (Stat is a command which displays files.)

Sorry to dwell on this, but- so it was looking for the files to match
the URLs it was checking?  And when I hit "reload" it replaces the
files...
