Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: update-manager

An unresolvable problem occurred while initialising the package
information.

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

'E:Encountered a section with no Package: header, E:Problem with
MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/gb.archive.ubuntu
.com_ubuntu_dists_gutsy_universe_binary-i386_Packages, E:The package
lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.'

I have tried the following but it made no difference:

$ sudo rm /var/cache/apt/*.bin
$ sudo apt-get update
or:
$ sudo dpkg --configure -a
$ sudo apt-get install -f
$ sudo apt-get update

Do you want  the results of /var/lib/dpkg/status. It is very large?

There is nothing in 
 /var/log/dist-upgrade/
