Lately I migrated all of my server to Ubuntu server, what I really loved about it the easy of updating the system, all I need to is:
$ sudo aptitude update # to update packages meta data
$ sudo aptitude safe-upgrade # to perform the actual upgrade
But sometimes on of the package information meta data files get corrupted, and I will get this error:
$ sudo aptitude update
:
