Title:
  everytime i am trying to get updates using"sudo apt-get update"
  command i get the following error

Status in “apt” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Reading package lists... Error!
  E: Encountered a section with no Package: header
  E: Problem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/in.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_natty_restricted_i18n_Translation-en
  E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.

  i tried the following command to remove also "sudo rm /var/lib/apt/lists/in.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_natty_restricted_i18n_Translation-en"
  and then "sudo apt-get update" but again the same error comes.

  i am not able to get any update or software.
  please help.
