W: Failed to fetch http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/dists/stable/Release: Unable to find expected entry 'main/binary-i386/Packages' in Release file (Wrong sources.list entry or malformed file)
E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

E: Couldn't rebuild package cache

Solution:

# rm -fr /etc/apt/sources.list

# rm -fr /etc/apt/sources.list.d

Then, give a new sources.list file. In a word, the error sources.list causes this issue.
