and here is /var/log/dist-upgrade/term.log however I should note that i'm not so much worried that it the file got corrupted(shit happens), but that the update manager failed to notice or correct the corruption.
apt-get wouldn't work either, but at least it told me there was something wrong... I'm not attaching the actual available file, but from what I could see with a quick less, there was a huge chunk of binary data in the middle. I might be able to find the backup I made of it if you need it? ** Attachment added: "/var/log/dist-upgrade/term.log" http://librarian.launchpad.net/4966409/term.log -- Update manager fails to notice corrupted /var/lib/dpkg/available https://launchpad.net/bugs/69542 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
