Title:
  cat: /etc/apt/sources.list.d/getdeb.list: No such file or directory

Status in “apt” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Could not initialize the package information

  An unresolvable problem occurred while initializing the package
  information.

  Please report this bug against the '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/fr.archive.ubuntu
  .com_ubuntu_dists_natty_main_binary-i386_Packages, E:The package lists
  or status file could not be parsed or opened.'

  
  I did this according to some suggestions on the ubuntu forum:

  ~$ lsb_release -a; echo; cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/getdeb.list

  No LSB modules are available.
  Distributor ID:	Ubuntu
  Description:	Ubuntu 11.04
  Release:	11.04
  Codename:	natty

  cat: /etc/apt/sources.list.d/getdeb.list: No such file or directory

  This problem occured after I tried, unsuccessfully, to install XBMC according step by step the following guide:
  http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Installing_XBMC_for_Linux#Ubuntu

  But I couldn't continue after the third line.

  Thank you for your help. I really want to update my system but because
  of this problem I can't do it.
