Public bug reported:

On the phone images the space required for the lists in
/var/lib/apt/lists is excessive (around 70MB) for the device targets we
have. The partition it currently resides in did not include this
requirement when their size was specified.

Possible solutions include generating the list dynamically as part of
the writable partition or including a smaller  simpler manifest.
