      Description

      Hi.

      Jessie and Stretch Package file is currupt for 4.0 leading to inability of installation (apt update fails):

      http://repo.mongodb.org/apt/debian/dists/jessie/mongodb-org/4.0/main/binary-amd64/Packages

      http://repo.mongodb.org/apt/debian/dists/stretch/mongodb-org/4.0/main/binary-amd64/Packages

       

      The error is:

      E: Encountered a section with no Package: header
      E: Problem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/repo.mongodb.org_apt_debian_dists_jessie_mongodb-org_4.0_main_binary-amd64_Packages
      E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.
      

      This is because the files have garbage at last line (output of dpkg-scanpackages):

      dpkg-scanpackages: info: Wrote 90 entries to output Packages file.
      

      If this line is removed manually then everything works fine.
