That file is corrupted. It is just the downloaded deb file so you can safely delete it and it will be re-downloaded. sudo rm /var/cache/apt/archives/libgmp10_2%3a5.0.2+dfsg-2ubuntu1_amd64.deb Colin -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
