Bug Description

Whenever I try to update my ubuntu it says,

Could not initialize the package information

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/packages.medibuntu.org_dists_precise_free_binary-i386_Packages, E:The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.'

Hallo,

medibuntu was closed.

You must remove all line with medibuntu in

/etc/apt/sources.list

and in all file from

/etc/apt/sources.list.d.

Then run

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

I close this bug.
If your error occurs feel free to reopen this bug.

Changed in update-manager (Ubuntu):
