Title:
irremediable error in update manager
Status in “apport” package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
System requests me to report the following bug of package "update-
manager" joining this message:
'E:Encountered a section with no Package: header, E:Problem with
MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/mt.archive.ubuntu
,com_ubuntu_dists_precise-backports_universe_i18n_Translation-en,
E:Les listes de paquets ou le fichier "status" ne peuvent etre
analyses ou lus'
Indeed, update-manager now fails at each attempt (since yesterday Sunday
09/09/2012). Restart did not cause any chamge. Alt+F12 (apport) failed to
generate any report that I am aware of - I am not expert enough to use command
line.
Software Center too fails to open.
Internet connection was extremely slow on 09/09/2012, webpages and
content of emails would not load in Firefox/Thunderbird (no problem
using other computer under ubuntu 11.10 oneiric - .in wifi, whille
affected computer is wired to modem).
Not the first time mt.archive is causing trouble: weather applet had
problems after update; had to be uninstalled, re-installed.
FYI: upgraded from oneiric to precise in July.
Hardware: Acer ER 1014, CPU AMD Athlon II Neo K325.
Please note that I changed to a new modem on 06/09 (Cisco model EPC3925,
EuroDOCSIS 3.0) - worked perfectly out of the box.
Hope I was not mistaken in creating this bug report.
Many thx to Ubuntu teams and community.
