I know this is way late for the above poster, but....
This just happened to me, and to any of you googlers that run across this page:
List 1:
- Open terminal on your touch or phone
- type "su root" (without quotes)
- type "alpine" (without quotes) or your password if you've changed it.
- type "apt-get remove cydia" (without quotes)
Here is where the road forks:- If you get a confirmation message that ends with "Yes, do as I say!", then confirm and type "apt-get install cydia" (without quotes) and you're done.
- If you get a list of errors, and it returns to the prompt, then leave the terminal open and proceed to list 2.
List 2:
- SSH into your phone or touch
- Navigate to private/var/lib/apt/lists/
- Simply delete the entries with bad headers, repeats, etc. (Whatever you are warned of in terminal on your device).
- Start Cydia back up
- Profit
