Getting Error While updating Linux Mint 11

**The Picture** · 12-11-2011

Every day when I come into work I realize that the shield upgrade in the lower right corner has a problem. so click on it and download a couple of things and gives me this error.

Code:

E: There was a section with no Package: header.
E: Problem with MergeList / var/lib/apt/lists/packages.linuxmint.com_dists_katya_import_i18n_Translation-en
E: The package lists or status file can not be parsed or opened.
E: _cache-> open () does not, please report.
so in this type (sudo rm / var / lib / apt / lists / *- vf)

katya 11 release of the Linux kernel 2.6.38-8 generic Gnome 2.32.1.Sorry thought it was just based on Ubuntu. Confidently this is what you need. Do let me know if you got any more doubt

I just upgraded to Mint 10-11 with mint Backup to restore my old settings. Everything seems to be working well, except for this

You will require to modify your sources.list to point to Katya as an alternative of Natty to the Ubuntu repositories. To do this, run 'gksu gedit / etc / apt / sources.list "in the GNOME run dialog (Alt + F2) and change all instances of" Katia ", then a link to ubuntu" elegant " .

Code:

deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ natty main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://archive.ubuntu/ubuntu/ natty-updates main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/natty-security main restricted universe multiverse
deb ://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu/ natty partner
deb //extras.ubuntu.com/ubuntu natty main
deb //packages.medibuntu.orgnatty free non-free

I've done this and copy and paste the code below and I still get the same error. It worked 1 day ago. I am also using Mint 11.

Think you could paste the contents of / etc / apt / sources.list here so we can see, then? I'm a little confused as to why it would be happening if the tickets have been duly corrected.

I have more or less the same trouble, every time you put in a new-fangled repository katya I have to modify a natty, here is my sources.list

Code:

deb katya main upstream import
deb  natty main restricted universe multiverse
deb natty-updates main restricted universe mu$
deb  natty-security main restricted universe $
