My update manager is stalled - every time I try to update I get
'E:Encountered a section with no Package: header, E:Problem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/mirror.aarnet.edu.au_pub_ubuntu_archive_dists_jaunty_universe_binary-i386_Packages, E:The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.'
How do I get around this?
Maybe the following thread helps (googled for "E:Problem with MergeList")? http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/debian-linux-help/51937-aptitude-problem-pr... NB: The "apt-get" commands are run from a terminal. Cheers, Peter -- Peter Reutemann, Dept. of Computer Science, University of Waikato, NZ http://www.cs.waikato.ac.nz/~fracpete/ Ph. +64 (7) 858-5174
