Semelhante a how-to-get-dpkg-working-again
meu dia-a-dia do apt-get teve este erro, completamente falhando em atualizar qualquer coisa:

Já experimentei esse horrível show-stopper em três servidores ligados e desligados por dois anos, usando os sistemas Ubuntu 10.04, 10.10 e 11.04 de 32 bits.
Todos os tipos de solução de problemas com o launchpad.net só entraram em círculos. Eu não uso ntfs mas ext4. apt-get purge falha, dpkg --configure -a sai instantaneamente sem saída, culpar python-twisted-core parece não ter resultado em nada.
Eu posso estar em algo. A próxima onda de atualizações automáticas a quebra novamente.

Você tentou fazer apt-get clean e apt-get install novamente?
A mensagem de erro sugere que há um problema ao descompactar o pacote:
unpacking replacement python-twisted-core ...
dpkg: ../../src/archives.c:968: tarobject:
Assertion 'r == stab.st_size' failed.
Eu também faria uma verificação completa de disco e memória para ter certeza, mas o apt-get clean pode ajudar.
