I was noticing the exact same thing last night with my cache server.
Double check DNS is ok on the cache server, and do an apt-get update on it.
Don't know if this will help, but just a suggestion.
Thanks... Mark Knowles' suggestion to do:
unset LANG LANGUAGE
did the trick. I'm not sure what other effects it might have though. Any?

fileserver.domain is our local network apt-cache server
it does this a few times during each update, but eventually finishes

Any suggestions what is causing it to hang?
thanks
