update-manager error message

[Gerardo Cordova]

While opening the update manager in Ubuntu 11.10 I get the following message:

E:Encountered a section with no Package: header, E:Problem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/mx.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_oneiric-updates_main_i18n_Translation-en, E:The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.

While opening Synaptic manager I also get this message:

E: Encountered a section with no Package: header

Non ho ancora risolto...

Ho sempre il segnale di divieto giusto al lato della iconcina di mail , vicino a icona skype.

Preciso che per ora sembra non affetta il sistema : per ora mi funziona tutto ; solo che non so ancora perchè ci sia.
