You could be right.

I have a cron job that runs overnight and does:

/usr/bin/aptitude update 2>&1 > /dev/null
sleep 5
/usr/bin/apt-file update 2>&1 > /dev/null
sleep 5
/usr/bin/aptitude -d -y -f dist-upgrade 2>&1 > /dev/null
sleep 5
/usr/bin/aptitude -s -y -f dist-upgrade 2>&1 | /usr/bin/Mail andy -s "Package 
status"
sleep 5
/usr/bin/aptitude autoclean 2>&1 > /dev/null

This is corrupting the files pretty much every night.

However, if I run this script manually (after deleting the *.bin files) then
it completes successfully (I assumed it was the apt-file that was doing it
because I generally just run aptitude update when I do it manually).

Very odd...

Andy
