I was getting the same messages yesterday, but it seems to be cleared up this morning. Probably a glitch in the repo servers.

Re: Can't run MintUpdate

Cannot refresh packages!

Result from sudo apt-get update

Code: Select all

E: Encountered a section with no Package: header
E: Problem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/packages.linuxmint.com_dists_debian_import_i18n_Translation-en
E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.
This is also happening of course with Sinaptic and MintUpdate and both LMDE 64 and Mint 10 KDE.

Any suggestions for a cure gratefully received.

I'm suffering from a similar fate, I get the following from any package management app including synaptic when I try to refresh:
