Hello

I have installed Lubuntu 14.04 LTS on Intel Pentium 4 system with 1B RAM
and while updating using Apt-get update in terminal the following
massage appeared:

Fetched 291 kB in 1min 13s (3,937 B/s)
Reading package lists... Error!
E: Encountered a section with no Package: header
E: Problem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/in.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_trusty_main_i18n_Translation-en
E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.
pranav at pranav-P4GE-MX:~$ 

Due to Lubuntu Software center, software updater  and synapatic package
manager are not working.

pranav at pranav-P4GE-MX:~$ sudo apt-get install apport
