Bug Description

Always when I try to launch the 'update-manager', it stops and give me this message: "E:Encountered a section with no Package: header, E:Problem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/br.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_precise_universe_binary-amd64_Packages, E:As listas de pacotes ou os arquivos de estado não puderam ser analisados ou abertos.'", and only gives to me the option to close the package, asking me to report what had happened. I'm using Ubuntu release 12.04, and have no further information.
