Looks as if the md5sum of all these files is broken, i.e. they don't have the contents they should have. (See http://rpm.org/max-rpm-snapshot/rpm.8.html#AEN19947 for details on how to read those lines.) > have you restarted your computer since the mentioned update?

If "ls -l /var/cache/apt/archives/*_1.0.9.8.4_*.deb" still yields something, calling the following command as root hopefully fixes this issue: dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/*_1.0.9.8.4_*.deb If they're no more there (or it doesn't solve the issue due to broken .deb files on disk), I recommend to call "apt-get download apt libapt-inst1.5 libapt-pkg4.12" on another amd64 Debian 8 Jessie machine (for easy download verification) and copy the /var/cache/apt/archives/*_1.0.9.8.4_*.deb files over to the broken machine via e.g. scp, then install them via dpkg like above (but with a possibly different path). If all that doesn't help, there's likely something fishy with either the file system or the disk below it. For now, I'm leaving the bug report open until it's clear if it's just a local (maybe hardware) issue or if there's a real and seldom occurring bug lingering in here.
