Public bug reported:

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/fr.archive.ubuntu
.com_ubuntu_dists_natty_main_binary-i386_Packages, E:The package lists
or status file could not be parsed or opened.'


I did this according to some suggestions on the ubuntu forum:

~$ lsb_release -a; echo; cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/getdeb.list

No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description:    Ubuntu 11.04
Release:        11.04
Codename:       natty

cat: /etc/apt/sources.list.d/getdeb.list: No such file or directory

This problem occured after I tried, unsuccessfully, to install XBMC according 
step by step the following guide:
http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Installing_XBMC_for_Linux#Ubuntu

But I couldn't continue after the third line.

Thank you for your help. I really want to update my system but because
of this problem I can't do it.
