I upgraded Ubuntu 11.04 x86 to Ubuntu 11.10 x86 via system upgrade. Everything was working fine.
The setup is dual boot with Windows 7 Ultimate inan old Dell Inspiron 600M.
One day when I signed into Ubuntu, following error message showed up when I try to check for update.
"Could not initialize package information.
An unresolvable problem occurred while initializing package information. Please report this bug against Update Manager package and include the following error message:
'E:Encountered a section with no package header,
'E:Problem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/us.archive.ubuntu.com_Ubuntu_list-natty-main_binary_i386_packages, E:The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.'
ANy help to guide me solve this problem will be highly appreciated. I am new to Ubuntu.
