One of my RAM chips went bad in my laptop last night. Programs were crashing
left and right today as I was using it.

I had tried installing something and it corrupted the download and the
package didn't finish installing. Now I've removed the faulty chip and
things are running again, but I get an error that I can seem to fix.

sudo apt-get update
... normal stuff ...
Reading package lists... Error!
E: Problem parsing dependency Replaces
E: Error occurred while processing libgl1-mesa-glx (NewVersion1)
E: Problem with MergeList /var/lib/dpkg/status
E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.

I've googled around a bit and tried
sudo dpkg --clear-avail
sudo apt-get --fix-broken install
sudo apt-get --fix-missing install
sudo apt-get -f install
sudo apt-get -f remove libgl1-mesa-glx

Nothing seems to be working

Any thoughts?
