Title:
  Reading package lists... Error!

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

Bug description:
  Just recently cleaned my system using the Janitor in Ubuntu Tweak
  after a most recent update.  Had done apt-get clean before then.

  I am using Ubuntu 12.04 wubi installation release 12.04

  I got a red "stop" warning on my menu bar and ran apt-get update which gave the error below:
  Reading package lists... Error!
  E: Encountered a section with no Package: header
  E: Problem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_precise-updates_multiverse_i18n_Translation-en
  E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.

  Running: sudo apt-cache policy update-manager
  Gave the same error:
  E: Encountered a section with no Package: header
  E: Problem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_precise-updates_multiverse_i18n_Translation-en
  E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.

  
  I tried using "ubuntu-bug' to report this but it could not find the package to report on.

  Thanks.
