The 'short read' error happens when trying to install a partially downloaded
package. The front-end verify the integrity of the archive, but it is not the
case if dpkg is invoked directly.
An input/output error is likely to mean filesystem corruption, hardware
problems or no space left on hard disk.
The suggestion is to run a manual fsck and look whether the hard drive or
storage device is operating correctly (dmesg may contain helpful information
too)
