Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. I was unable to recreate this bug using apt version 0.8.16~exp5ubuntu12 on Oneiric. Could you please try testing this again and also try running the 2 commands separately to see if the error occurs in one or the other? Thanks in advance.
