Failed to load the packagelist in ubunutu 12.04

For no apparent reason Ubuntu decided to no longer update itself. This has happened before and I needed to kill the package list and get a fresh version.

I found the following advice and it worked:


Press Ctrl+Alt+T to open a terminal and use this

sudo rm /var/lib/apt/lists/* -vf
sudo apt-get update

should take care of it
