Public bug reported:

I have opened package manager and recieve the following error:

Could not initialise the package information

An unresolvable problem occurred while initialising the package
information.

Please report this bug against the 'update-manager' package and include
the following error message:

MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/security.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_precise-
