I was checking again and i saw a new problem.... if i go to the applications manager and touch the ‘uninstall’ tab on the left. In the following screen also appear the information "no applications installed", but i have a lot of them installed.....

do you have any idea of what kind of problem is this????

one more test, do on xterminal

ls -lrt /var/lib/apt/lists
if this directory dosent exists you have to create it as root.

mkdir -p /var/lib/apt/lists/partial
and then
apt-get update

What happen if you write hildon-application-manager in terminal? What messages do you get in the terminal? Any error messages?

I try to do the test on x-terminal and the message was the following:

" Is -lrt /var/lib/apt/lists
-sh: Is: not found

mkdir -p /var/lib/apt/lists/partial
apt-get update
E: Could not open lock file /var/Lib/apt/lists/lock - open (13 permission denied)
E: Unable to lock the list directory "

still gives the error.....

writen hildon-application-manager on x- terminal the it open the manager application but still given the same problem...

are you doing it as root ?

sorry while copying it didn't copied the correct syntax, thats why you get not found, its lower "L" at begining, but while copying the syntax it says capital "I", so try it again and paste the output

ls -lrt /var/lib/apt/lists

I went to the application manager and the upper part were we can access to the application catalog and register, i choose register and there is a list of the latest codes registry of the application manager. i can not understand what is the meaning of the codes there.... above is the copy of the registry:

hildon-application-manager 2.2.65
E: Encountered a section with no Package: header
E: Problem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/downloads.maemo.nokia.com_fremantle_ssu_mr0_._Pack ages
E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.

anyone can understand if there is the explanation of the problem?

tanks to all that are trying to help me!!

it means, that some of your package is corrupted and needs to be fixed. post the output of the command which I mentioned before to check whats inside that directory.

what do you mean with doing it as root ?

ok i tried again but now with the correct syntax and the output was a lot information (how can i copy the information? it has a lot of pages)

do you see a partial directory and lock file when you run that command ?
