For me it happens in synaptic when I do a reload. But when I restart synaptic I see the packages which need to be updated and can install them without problems. This started to happen a 1-2 weeks ago.
$ dpkg-query -W synaptic synaptic 0.62.1ubuntu9 I haven't seen any problems yet, when doing an apt-get update. -- E: The package cache file is corrupted E: _cache->open() failed, please report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/257639 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
