Eu pesquisei muito, mas não consigo resolver esse problema.

    

Answer 1

Eu enfrentei o mesmo problema até atualizar os três seguintes pacotes para a mesma versão: dpkg , dpkg-dev , libdpkg-perl

Antes disso, eu tinha uma mistura da versão 1.15 e 1.16. Eu atualizei todos os 3 pacotes para 1.17.

    

Answer 2

Já tentou correr?

apt-get clean

Clears out the local repository of retrieved package files. It removes everything but the lock file from /var/cache/apt/archives/ and /var/cache/apt/archives/partial/.
