apt-get

No matter what type of apt-get I run (install, update, ...) I always get:

dpkg: warning: files list file for package `libgdata-google1.2-1' missing, assuming package has no files currently installed.

dpkg: warning: files list file for package `libntlm0' missing, assuming package has no files currently installed.
(Reading database ... 354644 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to replace libntlm0 1.1-1 (using .../libntlm0_1.1-1_i386.deb) ...
Unpacking replacement libntlm0 ...

At this point apt-get hang. Does somebody know a way to fix this?

Some days ago a line in source.list was removed (Google Chrome).
