Package: aptitude
Version: 0.7.4-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

Every so often, aptitude fails to update (with 'u') properly.  When
figuring out how to properly report this, I tried using update on the
command line.  Here is the result:

    $ sudo aptitude update

 - open (2: No such file or directory)


The problem is solved by running apt-get update.  After this, aptitude
update works just fine.

No. Closing. Thanks.

I currently do:

set -- $(find $aa -maxdepth 0 -type d -perm 0)
if test $# -ne 2
then
    ls -ld $aa

err=0
for m in $aa
do
    fsck -C -f -a $m && mount $m && chown -R root:root $m &&
    find $m/partial -type f -delete
    chown -R _apt:root $m/partial || err=1
