Actually, there seems to be a workaround.  I can just quit aptitude
while it is displaying the "Loading cache" message.  When I re-run it,
it doesn't know that an error has occurred and it displays packages,
allowing me to upgrade packages as usual.

That alone seems to suggest that the error should not be fatal...

peace & happiness,
martin
