Thank you for your reply. I have followed your instructions but I have
received the following message:
*Read lists of packages...Error!*
*(In translation from Greek)*

*E: Encountered a section with no Package: header*

*E: Problem with Mergelist /var/lib/apt/lists/gr.
archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_precise_main_i18n_Translation-el*
*E: It's impossible to open or to analyze the lists of packages or the
status archive*
*(In translation from Greek)*
What can I do in order to fix it?

Thank you in advance,
Ilias
