Title:
update-manager - Could not initialize the package information
Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
Hello,
I am using ubuntu 12.04 LTS.
When I try to launch the update manager, I get the following message:
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/security.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_precise-
security_restricted_binary-amd64_Packages, E:The package lists or
status file could not be parsed or opened.'
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Richard
