missing package header when updating system

Post by dykesy61 »

running Nadia 32 bit I went respond to the system icon meaning updates available,
but when I ran it I got a missing package header message as follows:

E: Encountered a section with no Package: header
E: Problem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/packages.linuxmint.com_dists_nadia_import_i18n_Translation-en
E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.
E: _cache->open() failed, please report.

what do I do now, please?
cheers
