Title:
  E:Encountered a section with no Package: header

Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: update-manager

  When running update-manager, I get this error. Also receive it when
  running apt-get update.

  'E:Encountered a section with no Package: header, E:Problem with
  MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/us.archive.ubuntu
  .com_ubuntu_dists_natty_multiverse_i18n_Translation-en, E:The package
  lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.'

  Running 11.04, problem just started today.

  Couldn't file it through Apport, for whatever reason.
