I'm new to Ubuntu and not sure about how to resolve the issue. Can someone give any pointers to make the Update functionality working again
I'm using version 11.04
Thanks in Advance

Subject: [Bug 346386] Re: [MASTER] Update fails with invalid package files with "Encountered a section with no Package: header"
Julian is the 2nd version of the patch that is attached to the bug
report something that would be possible to backport so we can get
updated packages in Lucid and Natty?
Pertinent data printed when attempting to run Updater as follows:
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/us.archive.ubuntu
.com_ubuntu_dists_intrepid_universe_binary-amd64_Packages, E:The
package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.'
Ubuntu 8.10
Need workaround to permit updating - usual apt-get commands (clean,
update) haven't worked; message as follows:
Reading package lists... Error!
E: Encountered a section with no Package: header
E: Problem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/us.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_intrepid_universe_binary-amd64_Packages
E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.
