No longer an issue for me as I have done several reinstalls and worked around the issue. My problem seems that apt or synaptic somehow corrupts some files during download, while if I download the same file from http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/ as long as I install my dependencies properly everything works out fine. I suspect a problem with apt connecting to (esp 64bit) software sources/package repositories.
